Absolutely Lucy #6: Thanks to Lucy

Be thankful for your furry friends in this story of a boy and his beagle!

Bobby has a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. He might soon become a big brother, his grandmother is coming for a visit, and he's absolutely thankful for his mom's pies, especially the pumpkin ones. But the number-one thing Bobby wants to give thanks for? His dog, Lucy. Lately, though, Lucy hasn't been her usual frisky self. She's quiet. She seems unhappy. Is something wrong with Lucy?For over 20 years, ILENE COOPER has been writing both fiction and nonfiction books for children, including The Golden Rule, Jack: The Early Years of J.F.K., and her Stepping Stones Absolutely Lucy, Lucy on the Loose, Look at Lucy!, Lucy on the Ball, and Lucy's Tricks and Treats. She is also the children's books editor at the ALA's Booklist magazine.

DAVID MERRELL also did the interior illustrations for Look at Lucy!, Lucy on the Ball, and Lucy's Tricks and Treats.
