" Katie Crouch's story "Men and Dogs" is about an eleven year old girl whose father took his dog out on the water to go fishing and never returned. Although he was an excellent swimmer, the police called it a drowning. This never sat well for daughter, Hannah. Her brother, Palmer, blamed himself for his father's drowning as he believed his father saw him kissing another boy. Mother, Daisy married a wealthy man within a year of losing her first husband. The copious amount of questions that haunted Hannah would play a significant role in her everyday life. She would turn to alcohol and promiscuity, which in turn ended her marriage to Jon, a man she truly loved and couldn't explain her behaviour to. A poignant story, but certainly one that kept me wanting to read page after page. "
