Nasty Weather, Little Xavier-Laurent

I met Snowball one day when I really didn't feel like going to school. I was dragging a fishing hook and line along the Industrial Canal levee, hoping to come home with a fish or two. When I picked him up, he was so light I felt like I was lifting a ball of cotton. "Woof! Woof!" he barked. That meant, "I want to stay with you." Snowball's little pink tongue tickled my fingers, and I immediately knew that nothing, ever, could separate us. Not even a Category 5 hurricane. Snowball is the first in a series of 6 novels: the second volume will be about Tasmanian wolves. Each story is set in a different country, and sometimes even a different era. At the beginning of each volume, there will be a map to show where the story takes place.
