The Trap

133 pp. | DK Ink/Jackson | October, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-7894-2599-8 $$15.95
(3) 4-6 After a coyote eats Ellie's beloved cat Bob, she and her schoolmate Troy set a leg-hold trap to kill the coyote. In a truly gut-wrenching scene, friendly neighborhood dog Fang gets caught in the trap instead. Ellie's bloody rescue of Fang makes her rethink her need for revenge and heightens her appreciation for all animals, but Troy remains determined "to do something about the coyotes." This satisfying story is fast paced and engaging.
