Best Children's Book - New England Book Festival - 2017 Honorable Mention Winner

Charlie and his adopted dog Max have an unforgettable summer journey through Cape Cod and Nantucket. Along the way, they develop a special bond as best friends. They meet a veteran who has a service dog and learn how service dogs help people. Charlie and Max are inspired to raise money to have a service dog trained for a veteran. They meet many dog friends who join in with their endeavor to "Help a Hero". Max and Charlie realize that they are "Never Too Young" to make a difference and help a person in need.

Children are shown that they have the power to help someone in need and make a difference, even at a young age. These experiences of "giving back" are learning moments that children can take into adulthood. This patriotic audiobook also inspires children to value the sacrifices made by those who have served in the military. The characters in the audiobook are inspired by real people and dogs.

The audiobook's story ties back to the true story of a group of children on Nantucket who raised $30,000 to have a service dog trained for a veteran one summer.

Other inspirational people in the audiobook are: a Cape Cod veteran who has given so much for our country, a police officer who set up an organization to help veterans and their families in memory of his son who was a Marine, and the director at the Cape Cod MSPCA who helps shelter animals find loving homes.
