Bookroo's summary
Dave's heart sinks when his cherished toy, Dogger, goes missing. Hope reignites when he spots Dogger at a fair, but despair returns as someone else buys it. Can Dave reclaim his beloved companion? With humor and charm, this tale explores the lengths one will go for love and friendship.
From the publisher
When Dave loses his favorite toy, Dogger, he is very sad. But when Dogger turns up for sale at the neighborhood fair, everything seems all right–until someone else buys him before Dave can get the money! Filled with humor and Shirley Hughes’s artful touch, this is a book for young readers to tackle by themselves, as well as a delight to read aloud.
