Go behind enemy lines through the eyes of famous four-legged heroes in history's biggest conflicts. In the first G.I. Dogs book, you'll meet Judy, a loyal canine soldier who became a World War II POW!
Meet Judy: an English Pointer and member of her Majesty's Royal Navy who served bravely alongside her crew during World War II. When her ship was sunk by the enemy, Judy became the only canine prisoner of war of the Japanese. Join Judy on her incredible journey from puppy to soldier to POW as she narrates her story of survival and heroism. This "dog's-eye view" takes readers into the heart of the naval action of WWII and will leave you cheering for Judy and her human companions as they overcome countless obstacles and prove time and again why a dog really is man's best friend.Laurie Calkhoven is a children's writer and editor living in New York City.
