At Queensview Elementary, grade-six students are required to complete a community service unit as part of their school curriculum, and Derek is assigned to repair duty at the local cemetery. \u003cbr\u003eDerek is not happy about his assignment. When he was very young, his friend Dennis was killed by a car after running into the road to catch a ball. Ever since, Derek has had recurring nightmares, and he is afraid that spending time in a cemetery will make it even harder for him to sleep through the night. When it rains, the lessons take place in the nearby public library. One day, a book arrives at the library, an anonymous donation that happens every year. On reading the book, Derek and his group mates find a secret code written on an inside margin. One code leads to the next, with the last code leading the students to a time capsule. The book includes a secret code for readers to decipher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Groundwood Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/06\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781554983872\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 205\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2013 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2013 pg. 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2014 pg. 82 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e160446 \/ Spotted Dog Last Seen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.5 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 6\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jessica Scott Kerrin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39521220329653,"sku":"9781554983872","price":12.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_4e8a3677-2ca5-4fb2-965c-efce224f8a7d.jpg?v=1616503961","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-spotted-dog-last-seen-9781554983872","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
