Geared toward elementary students, this
title introduces young readers to Scooter, a big dog who loves being outside and
going for walks with his friend Lucy. The
two friends take walks through the neighborhood, share precious moments together
in the house, and love being with each other.
When Lucy goes to school one day, she fails to close the front door and Scooter sees the opening and goes outside to
explore all the things he loves outside. Even
though Scooter is excited to be outside at first, he soon realizes that the outside
world is scarier than being with Lucy. Scared and lonely, he
lies
beneath a tree and is relieved when Lucy comes along and brings him back to his safe, loving home.
