enjoy everything; hills to roll down, perfect-sized rocks, trees that
seem to whisper their thoughts. It's the same when you're much, much
older, and every time 'round the seasons seems precious. Yet the folks
in the middle (we know who we are) are always rushing, rushing, rushing.
Appointments to make, trains to catch, places to be, FAST.
That's what makes the bond between old dog and the little girl so
special. From the time she takes her first steps, old dog finds
someone - at last! - who wants to go at the same pace he does. To walk
with everywhere, through this wide, wonderful world.
A love song to the bond between young and old, this book will make you
want to sit right down and read to someone you care about.
