Inspired by her brother Bruce's struggle to help his abused and neglected dog, Red Rover, get over his past, Andi writes a creative story about it. When she enters it into a contest, however, their neighborhood nemesis and Red Rover's former abusive owner, Jerry Gordon, wins the contest.

Determined to have Red Rover's story heard, Andi and Bruce decide to make it into a film for another contest. Their film soon gets noticed by a Hollywood producer, who wants to take it to the big screen. Jerry, though, is not too keen about his story becoming publicly known - and will stop at nothing to prevent this film from coming into being.

Can Andi and Bruce see their dreams come true for both them and Red Rover, or will Jerry get his way?

MOVIE FOR DOGS is a great book for dog lovers. The characters are well-developed; the plot is well-done and holds the reader's attention well. Those who liked the film or book version of HOTEL FOR DOGS, or who like books with animals, adventure, and realistic fiction, will all enjoy reading this sequel.
