This is a great picture book about the dog dreaming of finding an owner, and the little girl who can't wait to find a dog to love...
"Here I'm, alone in the park. No owner. No leash. No collar."
"Here I'm, alone in the park. No dog. No friends. No fun."
The two of them are separated by a line of bushes - that's why they can't see each other for a while. So they watch everyone else who passes by.
The dog talks to himself what a great companion he could make to that man, or to that lady... The little girl dreams of adopting every dog she sees..
The book is full of sweet humor. It's about love and belonging.
