Lara had always wished she was a dog, and one day, just for a short
time, she actually became one. This is how it happened.
In a mulberry brick house on the harbour that Lara explores while her
mother cleans, Lara meets Pierre, a boy about her age with a beautiful
antique puppet theatre. With his puppets, he tells her a story about a
boy whose family has been eaten by wolves. The boy is lost. He needs to
find his grandmother.
Lara takes the part of a dog, but suddenly she can no longer tell where
she ends and Dog begins. Or is she Wolf? Caught up in Pierre's story,
Lara has to fight to protect her identity - and her new friend. Can she
help Pierre find his way home?
