Noah and Link
A Comfort Dog Story
From the Series Hound Town Chronicles
Noah turned his head as rain rolled down the window near his hospital bed. Then he suddenly felt something wet on the palm of his hand. It was a French bulldog burrowing under his hand. "That's Link's way of asking you to pet him!" said the dog's handler. Noah stroked Link's short fur and told the dog about how he broke his leg during a flood. As if sensing his sadness, Link licked Noah's chin. For the first time in days, a broad smile appeared on Noah's face.

School Library Connection Review for Hound Town Chronicles
This is a very readable set of early chapter books about service dogs. The simple plots and informative text make a winning combination. In each short book, a child is introduced to a dog, an adult explains how the dog is trained, and there is always an opportunity for the dog to help a character in the story. Along the way, the reader is also introduced to various breeds and situations. The simple illustrations show characters from all walks of life and many ethnicities. There are also questions at the end on a “What do you think?” page. This is a nice series to use in learning about helpers. Glossary. Table of Contents.
