Synopsis
Every dog needs a best friend
Hilarious, colorful, and richly imagined pictures provide a
highly original twist on a classic theme in children’s literature.
Archie wants someone to play with – a friend who will throw a
ball for him to catch. One morning his family leaves the house
promising a surprise when they return. Archie is hopeful, but,
remembering past surprises, he’s not overly optimistic, which is
a good thing because they only bring home a baby named Max,
who leads everyone to forget all about Archie. Poor Archie
feels left out . . . that is, until little Max becomes the perfect
friend.
