Disco: A Coming of Age Novel

You Will Believe a Dog Can Fly.

For fourteen-year-old Donnie Miller, life in Gunderson, Wisconsin, is just another stop on his mom’s endless tour of “fresh starts.” His only friend is old Nate, the crusty fisherman who runs the bait shop by the river. But everything changes the day Donnie sees someone toss a sack into the water—and rescues the scrappy, soaking-wet pup inside.

He names her Disco.

When Disco snatches a flying disc out of the air like it’s the most natural thing in the world, Donnie’s ordinary summer explodes into something extraordinary. With the help of Keely Van Metre—the fearless girl who believes in him even when he doesn’t believe in himself—Donnie and Disco set their sights on the World Disc Dog Championships.

But before they can soar, they’ll have to face small-town bullies, a dark secret from the river, and the man who tried to drown Disco in the first place.

Heartfelt, funny, and full of unstoppable spirit, Disco is a story about friendship, courage, and the moments that teach you how to fly.
