Love Rolls In (Just Like Home, Book One)
"The Babysitters Club meets Puppy Place in this heartwarming and fun middle grade series about a unique animal sanctuary, the full-time family (of both human and animal variety) who live there, and the rotating stable of animal guests who will come to the farm with an injury or challenge but will leave knowing what it really feels like to be loved and cared for.
Siblings Ruby and Henry have an unusual kind of home life compared to their friends. At their house on the outskirts of town, their family operates an animal sanctuary with a unique collection of full-time pet residents living on the property: two pigs, three chickens, a dog, two cats, and a goat who thinks he's a human. Not to mention, Ruby and Henry's mom is also a vet at the animal clinic in town.
Let's just say, when it comes to animals, it's hard for Ruby and Henry's family to say no. But a couple months ago, their parents decided that the farm is full. No additional resident farm animals. No more fosters.
Of course, rules are meant to be broken...
When a scared puppy arrives at their mom's clinic, they soon discover that he's lost mobility in his front legs because of an injury. What worse, is that newy named Arlo clearly knows he's been abandoned. The puppy has hardly eaten since their mom brought him home, retreating to a dark corner of the barn where even Herbert the goat, try as he might, can't seem to cheer him up. But with Ruby's builder brain, Henry's heart, and a little bit of kindness from their ragtag group of animals on the sanctuary, they might just be able to teach Arlo how to trust again."
