Tag: A Boy, a Dog, a Quest — Dan Bomkamp

Orphaned at thirteen, Tag learns quickly that Foster home life in Chicago is not his style. After a brush with the resident bully, Tag runs away, hopeful he will find a friend in Wisconsin who he only knows as a character in his favorite book, and who he believes is real. On the run as a fugitive, danger lurks around every corner. But he has seen his destiny in a recurring dream that he doesn't understand, and his desire for discovery urges him on.
