Lety is an English language learner who loves animals and volunteering at her local shelter. When she is chosen to write profiles to help the animals be adopted, she is both thrilled and intimidated because it takes her longer to write in English. When a boy decides to challenge her to a profile-writing contest, Lety knows that she is at a disadvantage. However, she is not one to back down from a challenge - especially if winning the contest will help her in her goal to adopt her favorite shelter dog, Spike. (Oklahoma Sequoyah Book Awards, 2021)
