Middle schooler Charlie is anxious. He was so worried about going to camp he threw up before he even got on the bus. So when his parent surprise him with a rescue dog, Charlie is determined to be more responsible and less worried about everything. Ralph is going to be his forever friend. When he follows Charlie to school, the main office secretary suggests he get involved with agility training. But Charlie listens to the voices in his head, he thinks he'll never be good enough.

A fun graphic novel for dog fans and the kids who need a confidence boost. The illustrations were marvelous!
