What a sweet little story of riches to rags to riches for a puppy named Oliver and of a rags to riches for a sweet little girl named Maggie. ( ) Oliver the dog finds himself homeless when his beloved Bertie dies and Maggie the orphan foundling finds herself on the street when she angers the mistress of the house in which she has been working. "Pluck, gumption, and optimism stand them both in good stead as they cope with cold, hunger, and loneliness. Things look up when their stories intersect, and our inkling of a happy ending is joyfully fulfilled when Maggie discovers that she is the long-lost granddaughter of the wealthy duchess who has been peeking in from the edges of the story all along. This is Victoriana with no steampunk shenanigans and no tongues in cheeks, just well-orchestrated, straightforward storytelling for newish readers -- with a bonus of warm pencil drawings reminiscent of Lois Lenski." sarah ellis Horn Book 11/1/11 Good for a classroom read-aloud. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
