Qtutu Follows Through

About the Book

     If you were to step on an African Beetle, then trudge a mile on a baked and rutted road, Qtutu could follow the faint beetle scent and find you.  After all, he is a Basenji, a dog used y African tribesmen to track lions, a breed so old it is depicted on the ancient walls of the Pharaohs.

     In this boo, “Qtutu Follows Through”, our hero’s other qualities stand out:  tenacity, creativity and pluck.  He wins young readers’ hearts as he rescues Missy, an Albino Chimp, from poachers, teaches tricks to Porxina the pig, and protects baby bats from intruders.  All this without being able to bark!

     Qtutu Follows Through will enchant young readers and amuse parents and teachers who read to them.  The readership target is grades five through seven.
