A foodie French bulldog finds a forever home in this heartwarming and adorable debut picture book, sure to appeal to fans of Gaston, Ellie, and Little Elliot, Big City.
Meet Louie. He’s a dog of very fine taste. He knows every chef in town, and each day he wanders the city, visiting his favorite restaurants. It’s a good life, except…Louie is all on his own. What Louie wants more than anything is a family.
But try as he might, Louie can’t seem to find a family that’s right for him. At the beach, he meets a little boy and his mother…but they’re eating green jello salad and sardine sandwiches (Louie’s least favorite foods!). At his favorite sushi restaurant, Louie spies a father and daughter with an open seat at their table…but their cat chases him away. At the park, he meets a nice family having a yummy barbecue, but when they invite him to play frisbee…Louie just can’t keep up. Where-oh-where will Louie find a just-right family of his very own?
