This intense triangle is rendered with the pitch-perfect emotionality of classics like Because of Winn Dixie , Shiloh , and Old Yeller . Abadzis gives life to a pivotal moment in modern history, casting light on the hidden moments of deep humanity behind history., Laika was the abandoned puppy destined to become Earth's first space traveler.
