Hero Dog is written by an 11 year old which was the first reason I wanted to read it. And boy did her book keep me entertain. It is for younger readers, but kids older than 9 can enjoy it too! Hilde is a kid reporter and detective. Her dog, Zeus, becomes more than her best friend in this book, but a "hero". How? Well read the book. I do have a favorite part where Zeus is chasing Maddy, but I can't tell you who Maddy is or why Zeus is chasing her. But this part will keep you engaged in the book.
