Rescue & Jessica: ALIfe-Changing Friendship by Jessican Kensky and Patrick Downs Illustrated by Scott Magoon

Rescue and Jessica: A Life-Changing FriendshipRescue and Jessica: A Life-Changing Friendship by Jessica Kensky
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This children's picture book is for the young and the old- for everyone. Young Jessica has lost one of her legs and it is through a chance meeting she meets and learns about the service dog organization, NEADS, and applies for a service dog. The other great thing about this book is reading/seeing it through the service dog, Rescue's view. The Author's Note & Acknowledgments are important and the illustrator, Scott Magoon, wrote a post for the Nerdy Book Club on his use of symbolism in his art (https://nerdybookclub.wordpress.com/2...) An inspirational book about struggles and staying strong- as the title says - this book is about the life-changing friendship of Jessica and Rescue and it will change each reader too!
