The Fassa Tails Series: ROWLF! (Book 3)
Fassa and his friend Ally have been living happily indoors, but a booming "ROWLF!" from the neighbor's yard has been plaguing them for months. As spring arrives, Fassa's curiosity gets the best of him, and equipped with a brand new, confidence-boosting green collar, he sets out to face the bulky beast.
What Fassa expects to be a ferocious monster turns out to be Rocky, a giant, slobbery, and playful pup who loves to give kisses. Together, Fassa and Rocky embark on a thrilling backyard adventure, proving that things aren't always as scary as they seem.
Building on the legacy of Fassa's adventures, this heartwarming third installment of the series shows children that taking the time to understand others can help us see situations in a happier, kinder way.
Like all books in the series, ROWLF! ends on a cliffhanger. As Fassa settles in for the night, he suddenly realizes he never actually found out what (or who) the cat-shaped creature was in Rocky's mouth?
