How to Steal a Dog

Do you know what it feels like to live in a car? Or to be afraid to tell your best friend why she can't come over to play? This book is told in the voice of the main character, Georgina who lives with her mom and little brother in their car. She has come up with a plan to get some money so they can pay rent on an apartment. I suppose the cover of the book gives away her plan. It is a good story and I encourage you to read it and perhaps learn more about homelessness. SJV kids can make homelessness an issue to work on with your family or through our Public Achievement Issue groups this year.
