Emma
and the Night Dog by Susan Aller.
(Fiction - Children's Book) Inspired by the Connecticut Canine
Search and Rescue. A young boy runs, panicked, lost in the dark woods,
while a little girl, Emma, is safe and warm at home. Her aunt Alice
arrives at the house with the search dogs and their owners who need to
rest for a few hours. But the girl is haunted by the thought of a tiny boy
alone in the dark. Aller effectively switches the point of view back and
forth from the lost child to the secure one, dark to light, danger to
safety.
