This story is about overcoming fears. Ricky, the boy in the story, has a fear of dogs because of an attack from a dog. He comes across a dog trying to eat every time the kittens re fed. Ricky overcomes his fear and befriends the dog. A great friendship begins.
Children will love the sweet story. Kids usually love stories of children with their pet. Children will be able to identify with the fear Ricky is feeling and hopefully it will help students through fears they may have.
