Owney, happiest sleeping on a mailbag, loves to travel along as the mail is taken by train across the country. Based loosely on the true story of a dog during the 1890s, Owney's traveling experiences are chronicled in fictional letters from postal clerks and newspaper reporters. Appealing illustrations illustrate the bland text.
