Rock Harbor Search and Rescue

Book Description: "In Rock Harbor Search and Rescue, a middle grade fiction novel based on Colleen Coble’s bestselling Rock Harbor series for adults, kids will enjoy the mixture of pets, adventure, suspense, and a mystery.
Emily O’Reilly is obsessed with all things Search and Rescue. She volunteers with the team and goes on rescue missions with her stepmom. She is even selling homemade jewelry to save up for her own Search and Rescue puppy. But when an expensive necklace is stolen from a renowned jewelry artist at Rock Harbor’s fall festival and Emily is accused of the crime, it looks like she’ll never get her puppy and be able to join the Rock Harbor Search and Rescue team.
Emily isn’t willing to give up on her Search and Rescue dreams that easily, and she sets out to find the real culprit and to restore her reputation. With a few suspects in mind, Emily is determined to uncover the truth, but she isn’t prepared for the secrets she and the Search and Rescue dogs sniff out in the process."
My Review:  I enjoyed reading this youth novel.  Colleen Coble is one of my favorite authors, but I wasn't sure if she would do as well with a youth novel.  I was not disappointed.  There is plenty of adventure and suspense, as well as lessons to be learned.  Any young girl that loves to read would benefit from reading this book.  Ms. Coble wrote a book that girls can read, enjoy, and learn from.  I will definitely be hanging on to this book for my daughters to read when they get a little bit older.  I received a complimentary e-copy of this book from Thomas Nelson Publishers through their Booksneeze Blogger program in exchange for an honest review.  All opinions are my own.
