About This Book

A young puppy grows from a blind, sheltered whelp into an adventurous dog whose curiosity leads to a string of mishaps and new acquaintances. Early scenes show family life and first impressions of the wider world; subsequent episodes follow escapes, a runaway journey, confinement in a freight car, a cruel prank with a tin can, and urban hazards such as encounters with a dog catcher. Each episode mixes peril and humor while introducing other animals and kind strangers, tracing the animal’s learning, resilience, and the friendships that help him navigate unfamiliar places.
