The Dog Of My Dreams - Paperback

by Natalia Chekhova (Illustrator), Rachel Riley (Author)

A young boy vividly dreams about a happy day at the park, playing with a boisterous puppy. He is saddened when he awakes, realizing that he can't own a dog because he suffers from allergies. He confides in his mom who is sympathetic to how he feels. When the boy's birthday comes in the next couple of months, he is surprised with a beautiful Standard Poodle puppy, just like the one that he dreamed about! He learns from his mom why a Standard Poodle is a great choice for him (because they are mostly hypoallergenic).

Follow the heartwarming story of a boy's journey to dog ownership when he believed he could never own a dog. Beautifully illustrated in digital watercolor by Natalia Chekhova. Includes a brief history of the Standard Poodle breed of dog, along with trivia and discussion questions at the end of the book, as well as a gallery of different kinds of Poodles! 47 full color pages.
