Description
When a global genetic experiment goes awry and canines stop wagging their tails, mass hysteria ensues. In response, Mechanical Tail creates replacements for dogs, studying them on an island where 17-year-old Nano Miller was born and raised.
Nano's life has become a cycle of annual heartbreak. Every spring, she is given the latest robot dog model to test, only to have it torn from her arms a year later. But one day she makes a discovery that upends everything: a living puppy that miraculously wags its tail.
And there is no way she's letting this dog go. This speculative YA novel explores themes of friendship, survival and what it means to be alive in a world where the boundaries between humans and machines are increasingly blurred.
