Publisher's Synopsis
Some dogs are born fighters. Others are forged by the streets. But only a few become legends.
From alleys to porches, from chains to freedom, "Planters If I Got Peanuts" is a raw, heartfelt coming-of-age journey that rides the line between loyalty and survival. At the center of it all is the bond between a young boy and his dogs-first Poochie, the hard-headed street soldier with scars that match his owner's soul, and later Priest, a beast with champion blood and fighting past soft Ker dogs smelled miles away & now with the seed makers gone, I got peanuts left
Set on the gritty Southside, this story runs deeper than dog training. It's about family, growing up too fast, and being a kid holding onto the few things in life that don't let you down. With vivid storytelling and an unapologetically urban voice, this book bites hard and heals slow.
For anyone who's ever loved something wild-and lost it-this one's for you.
