Walks with Augustus: Sofia is struggling in school, and her mom believes that structure may be just what she needs to improve. She decides that Sofia will spend every afternoon after school dismissal taking care of Augustus, a troublesome white terrier whose owner, Grandma Lollie, is recovering from a stroke and unable to give him the exercise he needs. Sofia doesn't even like dogs... but maybe... maybe this one is different. And maybe this new structure really is exactly what she needed.
