About this listen

Britta, an eleven-year-old girl has lived in soul-deep sorrow since her mother left their family. When Britta’s father forgets her birthday, he decides to give her a dog (although Britta asked for a cell phone!). They adopt Crash, an Australian shepherd from their local animal shelter in Sault Ste. Marie, a small city in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and the adventures begin.

Rescuing Crash, the Good Dog is a story about broken hearts—not only Britta’s and her father’s but also a dog’s broken heart—and it is a story about the bonds between daughters and fathers and good dogs and also not-always-so-good cats.

Critic reviews

“I loved this story about healing broken hearts and broken families—both human and animal… A wonderful and satisfying ending.” —Janie Chang, Globe and Mail bestselling author of The Porcelain Moon and The Library of Legends

“Britta Kent receives the best gift for her eleventh birthday. Her dad decides it is time for her to have a dog, something that she has wanted for a very long time. In Rescuing Crash, girl and canine form a powerful connection, healing one another’s broken heart.” —Julie Buchholtz, author of Who Am I?

“A powerful tale of finding friendship in the most unexpected places. Rescuing Crash showcases the true heart of animal rescue in this fast-paced story of companionship, family, and healing. A must-read for young readers.” —Nikki Mitchell, author of the Magic Shoebox Adventures
