Kids on an adventure mission: Here come the animal rescuers!

In the small village of Birkby, surrounded by gentle hills, meadows, fields, and a slowly winding river, live Jette, Emilia, and Benno. One day, when they discover a left-behind dog at the Red Berta kiosk, the children know they have to help! They quickly name the dog Pommes (without mayo) and convince their parents to let them take care of him until Pommes' owner is found. With great enthusiasm, the animal rescuers set to work on an old fishing hut by the river, where Pommes is to find a cozy home. Paul, who has just moved to the village, also joins in, which Jette is not too happy about at first. Share Pommes and her best friend Emilia with Paul? Never!

But when a man comes forward looking for his dog, and Benno decides to run away with Pommes, everyone sticks together! This hilariously animal-themed new reading series by bestselling author Barbara Rose is lovingly and colorfully illustrated by Caroline Opheys.
