Slick remembers what it felt like to have a home. Now he lives in a junkyard, locked behind a fence and spending most of his days remembering the farm, his family, and the life he once knew. Then Luna, a gentle poodle from the neighborhood, learns that her beloved mom is missing. Luna takes off to find her, and Slick is determined to help. Escaping the junkyard is only the beginning. Along the way, Slick and Luna are joined by an unlikely pack of friends, including a fearless Chihuahua, a clever black cat, and a Border Collie with impeccable manners. Their search eventually leads them to Blossom House, where a group of senior residents may need them just as much as they need one another. Warm, funny, and full of heart, Pack of Hearts is an illustrated chapter book about friendship, second chances, and finding family in unexpected places.
Slick's story was inspired by the remarkable true story of a shelter dog who chose a senior home as his own.
