Rain Reign (en Inglés)

From Newbery Honor author Ann M. Martin, who wrote the Baby-sitters Club series, comes a New York Times-bestselling middle grade novel about a girl, her dog, and the trials of growing up in a complicated and often scary world. Rose Howard is obsessed with homonyms. She s thrilled that her own name is a homonym, and she purposely gave her dog Rain a name with two homonyms (Reign, Rein), which, according to Rose s rules of homonyms, is very special. Not everyone understands Rose s obsessions, her rules, and the other things that make her different--not her teachers, not other kids, and not her single father. When a storm hits their rural town, rivers overflow, the roads are flooded, and Rain goes missing. Rose s father shouldn t have let Rain out. Now Rose has to find her dog, even if it means leaving her routines and safe places to search. A story about honorable living in the autistic narrator genre that sets the bar high. . . . Martin has penned a riveting, seamless narrative in which each word sings and each scene counts. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review This title has Common Core connections.
