This little dog patrols the docks, braves the high seas, befriends exotic animals in far off territories...well, in his imagination anyway. He's also super happy to play with his owner in a big city park, and think of far off adventures again in his dreams.

This is such a cute adventure, combining dramatic visuals, understated humor, and moments of heart to paint the picture of a brave little dog who is content with his life but also likes to play pretend. Dog lovers will adore his face off with ship rats and encounter with jungle animals in a Lion King style parade. There's big illustrations with not too many words on each page.

Pick this up for a tale that encourages to dream big and live life to the fullest.
