What is Dog Blue about?

Bertie wants a dog more than anything — especially a blue one. Until his dream comes true, he uses his imagination to pat, walk and play fetch with an invisible companion. Then Bertie discovers a real dog and thinks he has found the perfect pet. But having a dog may not be quite as simple as he imagined. With lively illustrations and gentle humour, this playful story celebrates pretend play, big wishes and the surprising joy of finding a friend.
