Night Market Rescue - Hardcover

by Charlotte Cheng (Author), Amber Ren (Illustrator)

A stray dog stumbles upon the gift of friendship -- and maybe even the promise of home -- while wandering the delight-filled night market in Taipei.

While resting on a stoop, Gogo smells something sweet and spicy on the breeze. It leads him to a place he's never been--a bustling night market where vendors sell delicious treats. As he wanders, sniffing for scraps, GoGo discovers something else as well: a little girl who has gotten separated from her parents. He knows he can help and guides her through the market . . . to where her worried parents wait for her--with open arms for their daughter and GoGo, their new pet!
