Moose is a dog who doesn’t like goodbyes. Not one bit. When Zara heads off to school in her wheel chair, Moose finds a way to get to her at school. When Moose arrives, she is all about the hello to Zara and her classmates. The only way to settle Moose down, is when Zara reads. Her classmates like it when she reads too. Unfortunately for Moose, no dogs are allowed in school. And to get her to leave it takes mom, dad, teachers, lunch ladies and even the principal. But Zara has an idea. She wants to get Moose into Therapy School. Do you think this will help Moose get into a regular school?
