Summary

Though owned by the "meanest, dirtiest, and most shiftless family in Haddock Harbor, two young siblings "adopt" Daddles for two glorious summers.  The intelligent, endearing hound dog wins the hearts of all as he joins in with capturing a thief, escaping a house fire, and dodging trouble at a local circus.

Author Ruth Sawyer, a 1937 Newbery Medal recipient, penned her last book, Daddles, in 1964.  Daddles delightfully captures the innocence of childhood as a brother and sister fall in love with a plain hound dog during their summer vacations in Maine.  All dog lovers will warmly embrace this book that rekindles the memories of the tenderness only a child and a dog can share.
