Illustrated by
Emily Arnold McCully.
As a puppy watches the animals working on the farm, he wonders how he, too, can be useful. He can't give eggs or milk or wool. When his boy comes home, however, he discovers he's very good at giving love. The story of finding one's place is told in uneven rhyme and accompanied by lively watercolors of an idealized farmyard.
