Housedog Mister Bud spends his days just the way he wants to: napping, walking, and eating. Everything works on his schedule--"no exceptions"--until a wrinkle is introduced in the form of new-dog Zorro. Goodrich's nondidactic text, ably supported by watercolor vignettes, effectively mirrors the challenges and rewards faced by an only child having to make room for a sibling.
