Why Do I Have To Eat Off The Floor?

Why can’t I sleep in your bed?
Why can’t I drive the car?
Why can’t we play all the time?
These seemingly innocent questions, the kind usually asked by a child to an adult, take on a wildly humorous twist when addressed to a child by her dog, Murphy! The minimalist text and succinct illustrations, brilliantly set off the grandiose ambitions of this adorable, little dog with BIG ideas. His owner patiently answers all of his “why” questions, until finally, she’s forced to tell it like it is: that Murphy is a D-O-G (not a human).

Lucky

Lucky tells how he has food, shelter, friends, and a bed, but he is missing an owner, even though he helps his pals in the shelter find homes.
