My Dog and I cover

A delightfully imaginative story of a little girl who's always wanted a dog and shows us that love knows no bounds

A delightfully imaginative story of a little girl who’s always wanted a dog and shows us that love knows no boundsOut for a walk one day, a girl stumbles upon a lost “dog.” Having always wanted a dog of her own, she brings the “little” creature home and takes care of it in secret, hiding it from her parents. Proud of her new “dog,” she plays with it, feeds it, and even takes it around town—much to the chagrin of the townspeople and other kids who have been mean to her in the past. But one day, when her “little” friend gets the urge to chase something and ends up wandering off, she finds herself with too much sadness to bear. Will she ever find her “dog” again?

“a charmer of a book . . . A furry friendship certain to be the envy of young readers everywhere.” * Kirkus *
Soft jewel-toned watercolors are enlivened with spots of bright colors and detailed lines in this tongue-in-cheek picture book that’s perfect for animal lovers. * Foreword *
A solid purchase for large picture book collections, especially where animal stories are popular. A good choice for story times about imagination and emotions. * School Library Journal *
