Rescue on the Oregon Trail by Kate Messner

3.0

This is a solid story that covers two topics that should be quite interesting - search and rescue dog behavior and life on the Oregon Trail. This first book in the Ranger in Time series is particularly apropos for Oregon Battle of the Books. This is a short one, which is my only complaint. I felt like some events were a bit glossed over to maintain brevity. At the same time, this could be a benefit to first-time chapter book readers and younger readers in general. Nothing but good stuff here, and the SAR aspects are well-covered and the wondrous dogs that do this work are represented in a way that showcases their amazing talents.
