by Eleanor Estes ‧ RELEASE DATE: April 1, 1951
The tragedy of losing the family pet and the joy of finding him again is a familiar experience of childhood, and this story is an absorbing one. Jerry and Rachel Pye were heartbroken when their puppy Ginger disappeared. Immediately the children begin to pick up clues, and by a yellow hat, luck, and the persistence of Uncle Benny, age three, the mystery is uncovered, and Ginger, now fully grown, escapes his captors. Some amusing incidents, indefatigable youngsters, and an ecstatic reunion. Sure to please.
