Dog

Nearly drowned at birth, left for dead in a garbage dump, and hounded by dog catchers. No question: Dog's puppyhood is tough. Alone in the world, he decides it's time to find himself an owner, someone he can love and, of course, train. But human beings can be fickle, unpredictable creatures, and who would take in an ugly, scruffy little stray like him? Then, suddenly, a headstrong girl named Plum bursts into his life. Could she be the mistress he's hunting for? Or will Dog find himself back on the streets again? Now available to delight American children--a funny, touching, sometimes hairy, dog's-eye-view tale of adventure, survival, and friendship.Pennac, Daniel is the author of 'Dog', published 2004 under ISBN 9780613748100 and ISBN 0613748107.
