Frank is having a terrible, horrible, etc. day, but then he gets pooch Lucky, who becomes Frank's faithful companion in learning about the world. How Perkins manages to include so many actual, useful facts in the story is an education in itself, especially in the way text and pictures so thoroughly trust the obligation of one to complete the other. Who needs the Core Standards?
