Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Buzz is a very lucky dog. He lives in a fancy house inside an even fancier one. His appearance is maintained with the utmost care, and his elevated pedigree is a point of pride. Some might say that Buzz has it all . . . but what does it mean to 'have it all,' exactly? And is it enough to have everything you could want except the freedom to be yourself? For anyone who has ever felt pressure to be 'good' at the expense of their own self-expression, and for anyone who has ever owned and loved a dog, this beautifully illustrated picture book from author-illustrator Marianna Coppo will have you laughing, smiling, and longing for your own frolic in the park. Harry the Dirty Dog meets Gaston in this dog-themed picture book about what it means to be 'good' and, more importantly, true to yourself.
