Book Description:
Seventh grade best
friends, Caylie Jiang-Kahn, Lauren Blindell, and Sabrina Robinson have busy
middle school lives.
Sabrina wants to
make a movie about their friendship, but a stray dog shows up and ruins the
day. In frustration, Lauren curses, “Oh Phooey.” The name sticks. The crazy
mutt will forever be named Phoo.
Sabrina pieces
together bits of the footage she shot. She highlights Phoo’s silly antics and
puts the video up on a movie contest website.
The video goes
viral and suddenly, Lauren, Caylie, and Sabrina are celebrities at school. When
a volunteer at the dog shelter sees the film, she assumes the dog belongs to
the girls and calls them to come collect Phoo.
The girls arrange
to take turns caring for Phoo until he can be adopted.
While sharing Phoo,
Caylie, Sabrina and Lauren begin to notice that if the dog is around, lucky
things seem to happen. The moment he’s gone…the luck disappears.
When they all need
the dog’s magic at the same time, it’s up to the girls to decide once and for
all: Is Phoo truly a lucky dog?
