Poppy Needs a Puppy (2020) is Pamela Fagan Hutchins’s picture book for young readers, following Poppy and Petey in a story about wanting a dog. It represents a different side of a primarily adult-mystery career — a chance to write for a younger audience on a simpler, warmer theme.
The book stands entirely apart from the What Doesn’t Kill You series, the Patrick Flint series, and the rest of Hutchins’s crime fiction catalogue. It is for children and families looking for a short, cheerful read.
