**Eddy's Book Nomination: ** **Title: __Dog Heroes__ **
 * Author: Mary Pope Osborne & Natalie Pope Boyce **
 * Genre: Informational **
 * Nominated By: Eddy **


 * This book is full of facts and stories about SAR Dogs (Search and Rescue Dogs), READ Dogs (Dogs that are read to, to help the person be better at reading), Guide Dogs, and just ordinary dogs. It shows that dogs can be very smart. It also has dog history. For example, on Sept. 11 2001 a dog led a blind man down the stairs of the twin-towers when the planes crashed. (They were on the 71st floor.) **


 * There is a Saint Bernard on the cover and I used to have 2 Saint Bernards, so I wanted to see what it was about. **
 * I thought other people might like it because there are so many interesting facts about famous dogs. **


 * I liked the fact that a dog found a man __many__  miles away and 2 feet under ground.The dog saved the man’s life! **
