(4) K-3 Illustrated by Liz Murphy. Abandoned in a park, a charismatic but scruffy dog finds a loving new owner through Broadway Barks, a theater showcase that raises awareness about homeless pets. The real event behind the story--a pet adopt-a-thon on Broadway--is more interesting than the well-meaning but quotidian story. Mixed-media collage illustrations add texture and whimsy. A CD of Peters reading the story is included.
