I Want a Dog!

(4) K-3 Lisa's desire for a dog can't be satisfied with the "cloth dogs, wooden dogs, knitted dogs, china dogs" that her parents find suitable for their cramped apartment, so she comes up with a creative compromise. The story wraps up too quickly, but Bansch's illustrations featuring varying perspectives and splashes of bright orange are attention-grabbing.
