This is one of little Ricky's favorites. This is the story of a little boy who really wants to have a dog but his mother is against the idea. He enlists the help of a dragon to change his mother's mind. It's a really funny story and the illustrations by Hanako Wakiyama are amazing - right down to the detail of the boy's mother's capri pants. You will love reading this book to your kid because of the flow of the story, the pictures, and the fact that it's not so long that you'll lose your voice. A strong recommend!
