Lucy is a small dog without a home. She had one once, but she remembers it only in her dreams. Eleanor is a little girl who looks forward to feeding the stray dog that appears faithfully beneath her window each day. Eleanor’s father is a juggler with stage fright. The overlapping stories of three delightful characters, offering a slightly different perspective each time, come together in a truly original, beautifully illustrated book for dog (and underdog) lovers of all ages.

Lucy is a stray. Each day she must search, desperately, for something to eat.
Eleanor is a little girl who would love to have Lucy for her own.
Eleanor's father is a juggler who is terrified to be on stage.
Lucy, Eleanor, and Eleanor's father all come together serendipitously and there is a happy ending for everyone.
It's a delightful too-short-to-be-a-chapter-book, too-long-to-be-a-picture-book story.
