Do kids want to read a coding book? Not as much as dog stories.
"...emotionally resonant...enjoyable STEM-centered novelfor young readers..." — Kirkus Reviews
My name is Merlin Raj. I have a small weakness for socks which makes life as a service dog difficult. Usually, I only have to worry about helping my boy, Matthew, walk at school. But when my human Mom has to go away for winter break, getting ready for the holiday becomes a mess. I might be a super-smart golden retriever who wears glasses, but could I help my best friend with more than a disability?
Gulp.
Will a class on algorithms get me barking up the right Christmas tree?
"...the more conceptual discussion of algorithms is well done, and thestory is satisfying and emotionally resonant... Hampe's black-and-whiteillustrations add depth to the story, giving readers another window into Merlin's determination and creativity...." — Kirkus Reviews
