About the Book

A little girl's Christmas wish triggers a parade of puppies, with a new puppy magically appearing each morning, much to the dismay of her parents. Come join in the excitement to see what happens each morning. This story was developed at the request of Maya, a real little girl who loves dogs, and can't wait to have her own puppy. It started out with 'Momma, please tell me a sstory.' Then the story was so fun that it was written down. It is a nice family story that everyone can identify with - either parents who are worried about how many dogs they could deal with (especially the slobbery ones or the trouble makers!) or the little girl who can't believe that her wish has come true... even better than she ever imagined. The warm and whimsical illustrations capture the essence of a child's imagination.
