Age range 4 to 8A hopeful look at the power of imagination in the face of loneliness and disappointment. Nino doesn' t have a dog, but he likes to imagine that he does. His imaginary dog chases squirrels and plays in the lake with him. His imaginary dog licks the tears off Nino' s face and helps Nino feel less lonely while his dad is traveling. But when Nino gets a real dog, it' s not quite what he expected. As he spends more time with his dog, though, Nino learns how to be content with what he has, but that doesn' t stop him from continuing to dream. . . .
