Summary: Nice first book
Comment: The first book in this series focuses on Maggie, the granddaughter of a veterinarian. Within the first few chapters, a couple of puppy owners show up and bring in a total of 10 puppies suffering from serious health problems. When maggie and her grandma hear that the puppies all came from the same place, they begin to suspect a puppy mill. Maggie becomes determined to find the puppy mill, but she gets in trouble for her bad grades and her cousin Zoe shows up at the clinic. So instead of finding the puppy mill, Maggie looks up the laws on the breeding of puppies with the help of Sunita, and they do eventually catch the crook. But it seems that the sheriff wants to let the guy off easy. Will the pupy mill really go down? From what I read of this book, the series is off to a good start.

Summary: A really cool book!
Comment: This book is really cool, expecially if you like animals and I love animals! It tells about how Maggi, Sunita, David, Brenna, and her cuz Zoe help out at the vet clinic with Gran. They keep getting sick puppies and find the puppy mill where the puppies are coming from. It's a really good book, but kind of sad. You have to read this book if you like amimals, or even if you don't! My mom and sister even likes them a little.

Summary: Fight for Life Review
Comment: I really enjoyed Fight for Life because Laurie Halse Anderson did a great job describing the life of an emergency vet. The adrenalline rush when two litters of new-born pups are brought in and need extreme intensive care, but you are one person and can only handle one puppy at a time. The urge for help has definitely risen.
The best part of this book is extended over about four chapters. Maddie is in the care of her grandmother who is also an emergency vet. Maddie is instructed to help whenever she is needed, but is put on 'house-probation' until her school grades are brought back up. A group of school fiends have come to help them when two boxes of puppies, all from the same litter, are brought in malnourished and dehydrated. Maddie is informed that the puppies are from a 'puppy mill'. 'Puppy mill' is a slang term for a place where a person, usually a farmer, breeds dogs fore the least amount of money in care and under terrible living conditions. Now Maddie and her friends are on a mission: find the farmer. And there is NOTHING to stop her.
The most vivid scene described in this book was the resolution when the cops arrested the mill owner and the kids ventured into the mill to see the animals. It was easy to picture the dirty cages, dry water bowls, and tiny,cramped spaces. The most used setting in the book was the emergency vet office. All of the cluttered rooms stacked high in papers. This book was the most intense book I have ever read.
