Award-winning author Leslie Connor has created another unique masterpiece, wholly original and beautifully crafted. A Home for Goddesses and Dogs sings about loss and love and finding joy in the new friendships and a loving family and the worlds best bad dog.

Lydia knows more about death than most thirteen-year-olds. Her mother was already sick when her father left them six years ago. Then when her mother died, it was Lydia who sat by her side.

Fully orphaned now, Lydia follows the plan her moth made with her. She uproots to rural Connecticut to live with her last of kin. Aunt Brat; her jovial wife, Eileen; and their ancient live-in landlord, Elloroy, welcome Lydia. Only days after her arrival the women adopt a big yellow dog.

Lydia is not a dog personand this one is trouble! He pees in the house, escapes into the woods, and barks at things unseen. His new owners begin to guess about his unknown past.

Lydia doesnt want to cause trouble for her new familyand she does not mean to keep secrets but there are things shes not telling . . .

Like why the box of paper stuff she keeps under her bed is so important . . .

And why that hole in the wall behind the poster in her room is getting bigger . . .

And why something she took from the big yellow dog just might be the key to unraveling his mysterious pastbut at what cost?
