A child's heartfelt friendship with his dog becomes an unexpected source of life's most important lessons, from award-winning creators Victor D.O. Santos and Dena Seiferling

Out with his mother at the Sunday market, a six-year-old boy asks her if they can buy a dog--and the answer reshapes his entire childhood.

Over the course of the next decade, Luna, his best friend and the dog from that fateful day, is not only by his side during the most important moments, but also unknowingly the one who teaches him some of the most valuable lessons he'll ever learn.

Things I Learned From My Dog shows us the extent to which friendship, love, and loss can guide our paths and shape us into the people we will become.
