Book overview

In the third children's book written by critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling superstar Isabel Allende, Perla, the mighty dog, saves her human brother, Nico Rico, after he and his friend, a little girl dressed as a princess, get lost during a Cinco de Mayo party.

Perla is a mighty dog who has two superpowers--making people love her and roaring like a lion.

In this charming and poignant story, Isabel Allende continues her series about the bond between a child and a beloved pet.
