Lombardi is the third in a series featuring heartwarming days in the life of an ever-vigilant Jack Russell terrier and his human. Coe with spot interior illustrations by Kristine A. Putnam's Sons, an imprint of Penguin Random House LLC, January 2, 2018) written by Victoria J.

Given the speed of my furry friend (she nearly got a squirrel by the tail recently) they might want to consider a move. If either of us should happen to walk or run and leap off the deck when one of these striped marauders is present, we will be scolded with a telltale, high-pitched chirping. Based upon masterful sniffing by my canine companion their travel routes have been expanded to include the edge of the newly installed fence around the perimeter of my back yard. They have a roadway from one corner of my home along the back to the other corner. A series of doorways are evidence of their residence. Those rascally rodents named chipmunks have set up a kingdom on my property. In the meantime, have fun reading or rereading Fenway and Hattie and Fenway and Hattie and the Evil Bunny Gang! So I'm sure this one will be a big hit as well. The first two books in the series were very popular with my fourth and fifth grade students. Making matters worse, no one seems to feel the least bit sorry for him as the family is working to prepare the house for a visit from Nana.

This sets off a whole series of tortuous events for Fenway: a trip to the veterinarian, being forced to wear a Cone of Doom, and having to swallow yucky pills.

As the dog chases the rodent underneath some bushes, he receives a nasty bee sting on his front paw. Poor Fenway is now on the case of a pesky chipmunk that is running loose in the yard. The third book in the series, this novel takes a look at what our pets might be thinking and feeling when they get hurt and have to receive medical help. Because these books offer students and teachers a wonderful way to explore different points of view in literature and practice important inferencing skills, the first book in the series has been chosen as the 2017 Global Read Aloud selection for Early Readers. We get to see the adventures, big and small, of this family through the eyes, ears, and nose of Fenway. The Fenway and Hattie series shares such a lovable set of characters that includes Fenway (an energetic Jack Russell Terrier), Hattie (Fenway’s small human), Food Lady, and Fetch Man (Hattie's parents). I am so grateful that an advanced copy of this book was provided to me to share with my Twitter #BookRelays group.
