Bella was always a beautiful pup but as she grew, her owners knew that the bright, energetic beagle needed more to do. With the help of the Rainbow Street Shelter, Bella finds friendship and just the right job for a happy conclusion for everyone — canine and human.

When Nelly’s family could no longer keep the small brown dog, she came to the Rainbow Street Animal Shelter and became a special part of it. Nelly quieted all of the anxious animals when they arrived and even inspired Sam (who met her pet there) to suggest a program to help reluctant readers. Warmly told, this engaging novel is just right for animal lovers.
