SUMMARY: Kevin Pugh hates sports.  When his overweight beagle, Cromwell, sees a dog agility show on TV, he begins to act strangely by jumping through hoops, running and dragging Kevin to obstacle courses.  With some financial support from his best friend and mentoring from the mysterious trainer at Paw Patch, Kevin is on a mission to help his crazy dog reach his dream.  Yay for Team Cromwell.

REVIEW: I loved this book.  I had the audio version and it was really done well.    It is set in Chicago and of course Kevin’s dad is an ex-player for the Chicago Bears.  This doesn’t bode well for Kevin since Kevin hates sports and dad is constantly trying to get him to participate in various sports classes.  The dynamics of the family with his sister who is a fantastic soccer player, a mom who tries to understand Kevin, dad who doesn’t understand why Kevin should be in involved in dog agility, and then amazing Cromwell the dog, all  together makes this a fun read.
