About

91´«Ã½

In this outstanding picture book, the beautiful harmony between text and illustrations conveys the special bond between Perry, a black Labrador retriever guide dog, and Sarah, a musician who happens to be blind. The text and illustrations depict Perry and Sarah’s daily routine and Perry’s dream about their walk from Boston to New York. Large blocks of color within the book work well for story hour presentations or individual reading.
