Nothing But a Dog By Bobbi Katz and illustrated by Jane Manning is about a little girl that wants, with all her heart, a dog of her own. Not a parakeet, or cat. A dog. Because once it starts, that longing for a dog feeling, no thing can stop it. Not even when you are doing really fun things, like making perfect figure eights while you are skating. Or riding a grown up bike everywhere, or eating popcorn with your best friend during a monster movie. There is nothing, no matter how special the thing is, it can’t stop the longing for a dog. A dog can meet you when you come home from school and say “I love you!” in dog language. Going to sleep with your dog tucked in with you helps you dream happy things every night. Only a dog can stop the longing for a dog. Expressive text and soft water colors will help you remember the childhood wish of having a dog of your own to love. See this book listed in our catalog
