First published 2008
Meet Fanny and Blue, two dogs who lack intelligence and proper manners but overflow with charm. These canine companions stumble through their daily adventures, creating chaos wherever their paws take them. They might knock over food bowls, chase the wrong things, or forget basic commands, but their hearts remain pure. John Lithgow transforms his real-life pet ownership experience into a musical celebration of unconditional love between families and their four-legged members. The story captures how even the most troublesome pets become irreplaceable family treasures. Robert Neubecker's vibrant artwork brings every tail wag and mishap to life with explosive color and movement. This tale reminds readers that perfection matters far less than the deep bonds we share with our animal friends.
