Booktalk #1 The poor dog just wants a forever home. Can you blame him? He is hoping someone will want him to be their dog. And he comes up with an unusual way to go about asking. Arfy decides to write a letter to everyone on the street. Surely someone will answer him. Booktalk #2 All Arfy
wants is to be someone’s dog. He excitedly writes
his first letter to the family in the yellow house
asking if he can be their dog, but they write back and
say “no.” He continues to write letters to members
of the community trying to convince them to let him be
their pet. With each response, Arfy slips into
despair. Read Can I Be Your Dog? to find out if
Arfy ever finds a home. (Prepared by: Kelly Urtz,
Indian Land Elementary School,
