A dog delights in a summer day spent in the garden with his owner, an avid gardener.
When a dog named Dutch hears the gardener going down the stairs each morning, he anticipates her every move. But most of all, he waits for the beautiful words, "Okay, Dutch. Let's go outside."
It's a bright summer day. Dutch stands back from the dark, dusty toolshed, but the rest of the day is blissful -- rolling in the dewy grass, waiting for a scratch behind his ears, napping on the gardener's boots at midday and playing in the hose.
An amusing story about taking pleasure in the things we love, especially in the company of a good friend, written by Patricia Storms, with gorgeous illustrations by Nathalie Dion.
