About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts pleading for a pet or expresses interest in starting their own neighborhood business. It is a practical and encouraging guide for children who are beginning to understand that big dreams require planning, cooperation, and hard work. The story follows four friends who take the initiative to fund the ongoing costs of a puppy, moving beyond the initial excitement of adoption into the reality of responsibility.
