The Rescues Best Day Ever (the Rescues #2)
by Tommy Greenwald
Part 2 of the Rescues (Greenwald) series
What's in store for today? Three new adventures for adopted pet friends, Moose, Bear, and Tiger
A trip to the vet, an unexpected storm, and overactive imaginations all contribute to three stories that take place in one exhausting day. Moose, Bear, and Tiger have a stressful time facing up to their fears, and eventually finding comfort snuggling down in a big comfy chair at the end of a very busy day! They support each other through a packed day full of drama and conflict, but all ends happily as they settle down together for a well-earned rest. Tommy Greenwald is the author of many popular books for children, including picture books, novels for middle grade readers, and The Rescues, his first series for emerging readers. Charlie Greenwald is a copywriter by profession and a co-author with his dad on this children's book series. The Greenwald family has had four rescue dogs-Moose, Coco, Abby, and Momo-who inspired this series. (They have not had a dog named Bear, but give it time.) Shiho Pate is a California-based illustrator with experience in the gaming field. She is passionate about children's book illustration and has published several books, including Ramen for Everyone and the Chi-Chi and Pey-Pey series. Shiho lives with her husband, daughter, and new dog addition Olive, whom she adopted when they met at a book signing/dog adoption event for the first Rescues book. "Stressful new adventures provide opportunities for three rescue pets to comfort and support each other. A series of tersely told episodes that are spread out over the pages in easily digestible bits follows an adorable trio: a cat named Tiger and two dogs named Moose and Bear. . . In Pate's luminous, freely brushed illustrations, the feelings of the very young-looking animals are patent on their expressive faces at each moment . . . Sweet, low-key lessons in togetherness."–Kirkus Reviews

The Rescues Three Wishes (the Rescues #3)
by Tommy Greenwald
Part 3 of the Rescues (Greenwald) series
Three new adventures in which Moose, Bear, and Tiger each wish to change something about themselves but realize happiness is in accepting who you are
In three new stories, a playdate with a dog named Wolf leads Tiger to wish he were stronger, but he retrieves a lost toy and shows he has other skills to offer. Bear finds a way to make friends with a new mailman when he passes their house and doesn't stop to share treats. And on Saturday, a game on the cat tower gets out of hand and they all collapse about laughing, but Cathy banishes the pets to play in the yard. There they reflect on the things they wished they were and realize they are perfect just the way they are. Three more delightful episodes packed with humor, friendship, and fun.
