\u2018Can I have a dog?\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Every morning the little girl asks the same question. It doesn\u2019t matter what kind of dog, it could be big, small, old, young, saggy or waggy, she just wants a dog!<\/p>\n

Would she take care of a dog and all of its needs, every single day?<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Persuading Dad to go with her to visit the shelter for homeless dogs, she finds furry, funny and friendly Max.<\/p>\n

If only she could take Max home with her, she would look after him every day in every way.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Full of fun and gentle humour, this is the perfect book for dog lovers.<\/p>\n

Never underestimating the care required to look after a dog, this lovely picture book has a strong message hidden amongst the humour; it isn\u2019t where we come from but where we are going to that counts.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Alex Ayliffe\u2019s fabulous illustrations bring this whole story to life. Who couldn\u2019t love the adorable Max?<\/p>\n
