This is a tender 're-telling' of the real life misadventures of a cocker spaniel pup on a trip to the woods of northern Maine. Lessons about peer pressure, the importance of obedience, and trusting those who love us, are shared in a manner that even young children will understand. Drawn into the story by simple child-like illustrations, they will see how "Lil' Dog" encounters, and overcomes, obstacles and danger, drawn and empowered by love. The message is inspiring to all ages as we travel through life trying to find our way 'home'.
