They name it Ginger. On Thanksgiving Day they think someone stole her. They search the whole town but there's no sign of her.

November 11, 2009: This book was assigned to my son, who is 10 and Autistic. It was a little hard for him to comprehend the story. After he read a couple pages I had him tell me about what he had just read and he had trouble recalling. It could be that it was just to complicated of a book for him... so I started reading it to him about half way though. I ended up having to reread quite a few passages to understand what the character was saying. Other than that the book was pleasant. It had a good story line and kept my son guessing until the end.
