Orwell's Luck by Richard W. Jennings, ISBN 0618036288
I looked up from my notebook. Orwell was watching me. He didn't act scared at all.

His ears perked up and he raised his chest like he was going to stand. But, of course, he couldn't.
"Don't worry, Orwell", I told him. "It'll be all right. My grandmother says that when stuff happens, even when it's bad, it happens for a good reason. It's just that we don't always know what the reason is".
Orwell twitched his nose at me a mile a minute and opened his little pink mouth like he really was going to say something. Then he smiled at me. It was really fast, and it only lasted a second, but it was definitely a smile.
