PM Emerald: The Saddest Dog (PM Plus Chapter Books) Level 25

Kim and her mother find a very sad dog in their backyard. Kim would like to keep the dog, but Mum says they must try to find his owner. They put up notices at the local shops, but Kim is secretly pleased when nobody contacts them about the dog. Then she hears an announcement on the radio about a lost dog that sounds like the one in their backyard, but she doesn’t tell Mum. However, the dog gets sadder, and sadder, and Kim realises he needs to be returned to his owners.
