Why read it?

1 author picked Ginger Pye as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is one of my all-time favorites. But it’s an old one. It was first published in 1951. It is adorable and funny, and I don’t think it’s ever been out of print. It’s about a boy who searches for his dognapped dog, Ginger Pye. No worries. Love will triumph!

From Margaret's list on where the dog lives.
