I want a dog

When the little Kate and her parents decide to have a dog, they are not in a nursery with purebred puppies, but in the shelter for homeless and abandoned animals, about which they read in the newspaper. There, they find the dog of their dreams - a small, cute, restless Toby, who without tiredly wags the tail and wear circles. Mom, dad and Kate are glad to take Toby with themselves, on the most care, one more dog is noticed - old, gray, wide as A rose suitcase, which also really needs a house. We would gladly take all these dogs, but how?, Mom sighs. And they leave, it"s looking back on a rose. At home, everyone enjoy communication with the new pet Toby, but at night neither mother nor dad, nor Kate succeed. All of them think about rose. And the next morning ... the next morning the family, forgetting about breakfast, goes back to the dog shelter - this time to pick up a rose. In 2002, the book "want a dog!" Received the first awards in the nomination "Best Children"s Book-picture" in Australia and in the USA
