She plans her escape and in her spare time in the backyard, Maisie digs a tunnel under the fence. When Snickers, a stray cairn terrier joins the family, he wonders why Maisie wants to leave her safe home. He tells MaisieÑfrom his firsthand experienceÑthat life on the street is rough, tough, and lonely.

"A Mile in my Paws captures the spirit of rescue work with an engaging narrative and whimsical illustrations. What a wonderful way to introduce a younger audience to the concept of pet adoption. A thoroughly charming read from start to finish!"
