Max and Lily are being teased and bullied at school. Their Aunt Eileen calls the Helper Hounds, and soon Robot, an endearing Rottweiler who knows all about bullies, comes to give support. A lot of people think Rottweilers are bullies, but that's because they don't really know how cuddly they can be. Robot and his handler Samuel help the kids at Max and Lily's school deal with bullies while Max and Lily gain new friends.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>This therapy dog narrates her perspective on grief.<br /> <br /> Curly Noodle the goldendoodle knows firsthand about loss, having lost two families already. She now lives on the campus of a local university, happily greeting others on her long walks. Noodle has been officially trained to be a 'world-famous Helper Hound.' Her current case concerns a young boy named Gabriel, who won't cry over his grandfather's recent death. Gabriel's family is supportive, and their unnamed but described Catholic faith teaches that 'one day [they] will all be together again, ' but Gabriel opens up only in Noodle's comforting presence. He's helped by other humans sharing stories of loss and a metaphor of Noodle's left-behind curly hairs as traces of a loved one's lingering love. Positivity and a surprise reunion supply a happy ending to this somber lesson. Noodle's narration is compassionate and sincere, like her doggy personality, and appropriate for readers who may be going through similar life events. The text discourages dog breeding: 'Rescued is the best breed!' Noodle's owner says. Backmatter contains 'Tips for Grieving' as well as some facts on goldendoodles. Gabriel's bilingual family hails from Mexico, and illustrations depict the other primary characters as white. Noodle's current owners are in a same-sex partnership. Companion title <em>Robot Helps Max and Lily Deal With Bullies </em>features a Rottweiler who provides support for a pair of bullied siblings.<br /> <strong><br /> A positive message of hope and love.</strong>--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p>-- "Journal" (6/3/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br>
