Little Molly's Secret: An Unexpected Champion - Hardcover

Little Molly, a registered Border Collie, was introduced to readers in 2019 with her own book. Jeanne Boudrieau contacted the author through the Idaho County Free Press in 2020 to purchase Little Molly's book and revealed she had "Secret," one of Little Molly's puppies. From that point, momentum grew to tell the rest of Secret's story. On St. Patrick's Day, 2018, Little Molly had a litter of nine puppies. The family veterinarian said the last one would not survive without bottle feeding. Ten-year-old Elsa volunteered to bottle-feed the runt, and it soon became an integral member of the Evans family. Young readers will appreciate Secret's uniqueness as the narrative deals with themes that are different from many children's books. Further, it enables readers to make predictions figuring out if Secret will succeed in dog trials. Clues are weaved in with plenty of action, creating authentic situations to enrich the suspense of this engaging and poignant story. The image of "cuteness" transforms a runt named "Secret" to becoming an unexpected champion.
