Roselle, was at his feet.

judgment and not to panic. They were a team.

"Chapter by chapter of this intriguing work will keep you spellbound. Thunder Dog celebrates the
power of the human and animal bond. We all can learn life lessons from this incredible story."--Larry
King, Emmy award-winning broadcaster and longtime host of Larry King Live. When Michael told me about his novels and he also told Keepin It Real that he was in the building of 9/11. There is when a puppy who became a true American hero. The blind boy who let nothing stop him. When they finally grew up and met, it was magic. On September 11, 2001, a blind man escaped the World Trade Center by walking down 78 flights of stairs with his guide dog. Days later, America fell in love with Mike and Roselle, and the special bond that helped them survive. Mike shared his story in the New York Times bestselling book, Thunder Dog. Now, in Running With Roselle, kids can follow Roselle as she grows from an energetic yellow Lab prone to stealing her puppy raiser’s slippers to a confident guide dog who passes the ultimate test when her partner needs her most. Meet Mike, a boy blind from birth who excels in public school, shocks the neighbors by riding his bicycle through the streets of Palmdale, CA, drives a car around his college campus, and uses his relationship of trust and teamwork with Roselle to help others on a day that changed America forever.
