Hannah finally gets her dream Dalmatian, Oscar, but as Christmas nears, her school play rehearsals take over her life. Oscar, once thrilled in his new home, now feels abandoned.

Discover the heartwarming journey of a girl and her beloved dog as they navigate the challenges of growing up and staying connected.

From the publisher

Hannah has always wanted a dog and can’t believe her luck when her parents finally say that they can adopt one. Better yet, they’re getting a Dalmatian–Hannah’s dream dog. Oscar loves Hannah and soon settles into his new home. But as it gets closer to Christmas, Hannah needs to rehearse for her school play, and she has less and less time for long walks and games with her puppy. Oscar feels lonely and neglected. Why doesn’t Hannah want to spend time with him anymore?
