Perfect for fans of R. J. Palacio and Gordon Korman, this is the hilarious and heartwarming sequel to Elvis and the Underdogs from author Jenny Lee. In this sequel, Benji's former safety dog, Elvis, has been taken away by the Secret Service to become the president's dog. Although Benji misses him terribly, he is able to see plenty of pictures and videos of Elvis online. While watching a video of the president's speech, Benji and his friends notice Elvis thumping his tail in what appears to be a code. They realize Elvis is signaling for help and embark on a madcap adventure to Washington DC to uncover the truth behind Elvis's distress signals and state secrets, all while trying to avoid getting caught.
