Synopsis
A heartwarming story about the growing bond between a child and a new pet--inspired by the author's experience with a rescue dog of the same name.
When a young boy and his father move from one house to another, they decide to adopt a dog from the local rescue shelter. But their chosen dog, Toby, is having a tough time adjusting to his new life outside the shelter--howling all night, hiding fearfully from his new humans, forgetting where to go to the bathroom, and chasing a ball through the flower bed. The boy has promised to train his new companion, and he's trying his best, but Dad is starting to get exasperated. Will Toby ever feel comfortable with his new family and settle into his forever home, or will Dad decide he's not the right dog for them after all?"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Review
Inspired by her own dog's adoption story, illustrator Mitchell's (Kenya's Art) first book as author centers on a boy who has moved into a new neighborhood with his (presumably single) father...The highlight of this getting-to-know-you tale is Mitchell's visual channeling of her characters' emotions, both human and canine.
--Publishers Weekly
--Booklist This familiar story with a family cast not often seen in picture books will warm dog-loving hearts.
--School Library Journal Toby is a pleasing pup.
