A touching tale about the need to be loved & friendship.

I found this in the discard pile at my local library, and 'adopted' it. My 2-year-old daughter loves this gentle story of a little dog who yearns for food, and most importantly love. He roams the streets looking for scraps, and eventually makes his way to a gallery, in which he finds an artist, Rosa, who seems to be only able to paint dark, and bleak paintings. She provides Little Dog food and a home, and comes to love him, just as she finds his irrepressible spirit contagious and starts to paint visions of color and brightness. This is a great story of love, and friendship and is appealing to all ages.

My new favorite gift to give

Little Dog has become my favorite gift to give. Especially to families that read together. Little Dog is a simple hero because he gives unconditional love and makes everyones life better.
