Harry and Lulu

By Arthur Yorinks

Book Overview

Lulu wants a real dog -- desperately. So you can imagine her frustration and anger when her parents hand her Harry, a stuffed dog! Lulu goes lulu. She doesn't realize, however, that stuffed animals have feelings, too, and Harry is no exception. He explains to her that he is a real dog -- and that he's from France! Lulu is skeptical until he takes her there. Before Lulu knows it, she's having a ball. But Lulu is still Lulu, and Harry is no real dog to her. It's only after Harry risks his own life to save hers that Lulu realizes a friend can come in many guises, and that a stuffed dog can be real -- if you believe it is.

Customer Reviews

Great fun for kids and parents!

This is one of my favorite children's books. Oh, and my kids love it too! I had to write a review when I saw that no one else had written one on this terrific book. Arthur Yorinks infuses his story with sophisticated humor that adults will enjoy and kids will giggle at. The illustrations by Martin Matje are the perfect complement to this delightful story. You will go Lulu over "Harry and Lulu."
