Cracker! The Best Dog in Vietnam

Cracker! The Best Dog in Vietnam
by Cynthia Kadohata


There is a dog named Cracker. She is a German Shepherd. Her owner is named Willie. Willie used to live in a house, but when his dad got laid off, they had to move to an apartment. The only bad thing is that the apartment does not allow dogs. Because of this, they have to send Cracker to the military, so she can become a military dog. Rick becomes Cracker's new owner, but Cracker still misses Willie a lot. She is going to Vietnam with the military.

Read this book to find out what happens to Cracker. Will she come back to America, or die saving Rick? You will have to read to find out more! This is a really good book because it is based on a true story, and tells what happens when dogs go into the military.
