BUSCO by Robert J. Kowalski

Busco is no ordinary dog—he’s a lovable mutt with a big heart, a story full of hope, and a message that will inspire readers of all ages. In Busco: We Are All Just Mutts After All, author Robert Kowalski takes young readers on an emotional adventure that begins with Busco feeling unnoticed and unloved. But when a storm tears through his small town, Busco’s life changes forever. Lost and separated from the damaged shelter he once called home, he must navigate the countryside to find his place in the world. 

This heartwarming story is more than just a tale about a dog—it’s a celebration of resilience, love, and the universal need to belong. As readers follow Busco’s journey, they’ll encounter lessons about facing challenges with courage, offering kindness to others, and discovering that even in the hardest times, there’s always hope. 

What makes this book truly special is how it connects with readers on an emotional level. Busco’s struggles and triumphs are beautifully brought to life, making it easy for kids to cheer for him and learn from his experiences. Larisa’s colorful and expressive illustrations add an extra layer of charm, bringing the story to life with vibrant scenes that capture both the storm’s chaos and the warmth of Busco’s journey. 

Robert Kowalski, already known for his adult fiction Jaycee, shines in his children’s literature debut. His love for animals and belief in the interconnectedness of all life are evident throughout the story. By weaving in themes of kindness and acceptance, Kowalski creates a tale that encourages empathy in young readers while keeping them entertained with Busco’s adventures. 

Busco: We Are All Just Mutts After All is a delightful read for kids who love animals and for families looking for stories with meaningful messages. It’s a gentle reminder that everyone, even a little dog, deserves love and belonging. Busco’s journey is one you won’t want to miss—be ready to laugh, cry, and cheer as you follow this lovable mutt’s path to finding his forever home. 

Robert Kowalski, a passionate storyteller and animal lover from Minnesota, combines his life experiences with a deep respect for all living creatures in this heartwarming tale. Larisa, the illustrator, brings years of experience crafting vibrant illustrations that make children’s stories unforgettable. Together, they’ve created a treasure for readers young and old.
