Bon-A-Me: Based on a True Story - Paperback

by Laura Rilla (Author), Shirley McDaniel (Illustrator), Judy Dees (Editor)

Lisa left the shelter with the little white poodle wrapped in a towel. They lived together and were the best of friends for three years. Their house had a large picture window which looked out on a busy street where she watched cars, people and bicycles go past the window.

Bon-A-Me's world turned upside down when they moved from the busy street to a house which clung to a hillside with no street and few windows. She was unhappy there seeing only squirrels and birds, so she ran away leaving Lisa behind.

In her search for a new home with a large picture window and a busy street she endured rain, cold, and hunger. Sometimes she thought about Lisa but didn't know how to find her way back - then she remembered the house with few windows.

She continued down the street until one day she saw a yellow school bus stop in front of a house with a large picture window. A young boy and girl got on the bus and it drive away. Should she cross the street to get to that house? Could that be her new home?
