After bulldog Gloria's owner receives a new doll, the pup becomes jealous and grumpy. All efforts to cheer her up fail miserably. When she falls into the doll's carriage, though, Gloria realizes "there's room for two." Brightly colored, humorously expressive illustrations capture Gloria's scowling and slobbery countenance. Although awkward in places, the rhyming text is filled with descriptive alliteration.
