A childrens' book about a guide dog and its blind child . . . what a wonderful way to introduce a child to the notion that a a dog can be more than a companion and "toy", and to teach that child something about tolerance for people who are different. This story of Perry the guide dog and Sarah his owner follows these best friends through a day in their lives. Perry takes his job of looking out for Sarah very seriously. Through his eyes we see them on a typical day - running errands, working, playing, and meeting a friend. As we get to know Perry, we learn about the ways a guide dog helps a blind person and their deeply affectionate, symbiotic partnership. >From Dogwise.com, home of the largest and best selection of dog books and videos on the internet.
