From the creator of the New York Times best-illustrated children´s book award winner The Only Child, comes a gorgeous and moving wordless picture book that´s perfect for dog lovers.
In this heartwarming, wordless picture book that´s perfect for dog lovers, a woman visits a park and discovers a pup hiding under a bench--scruffy, scared, and alone. With gentle coaxing, the woman tries to befriend the animal, but the dog is too scared to let her near. Day after day, the woman tries--and day after day, the dog runs away. With perseverance and patience--and help from an enticing tennis ball--a tentative friendship begins. But it´s not until a raging storm forces the two together that a joyous and satisfying friendship takes hold. Guojing poignantly explores how trust doesn´t always come easily, but how, over time, and with kindness and determination, forever love can grow.
