To Serve and Protect by Leslea Wahl

Loyal Siena protects her family from all dangers, and that includes mailmen, squirrels, and plastic bags. She never abandons a man down, no sir! Siena takes her mission to keep her family safe very seriously. This loyal pooch does her best to fill in for this military family’s daddy while he is deployed, and she does a pretty good job of it. Was there ever a guard dog so faithful as Siena? Good girl!

About the author: Catholic author and Colorado native, Leslea Wahl may be best known for her award-winning teen mysteries, The Perfect Blindside, eXtreme Blindside, and Where You Lead, and for her work with CatholicTeenBooks.com. But when she was inspired by her golden doodle Siena, she decided to try her hand at her first children’s picture book. To Serve and Protect is the sweet story about a pet’s love and devotion to her family.
