But before Joseph gets to that point, he discovers that he was born with a short, deformed leg, and must go through ""physical therapy"" to learn how to walk. He contends with feelings of loneliness and isolation. The book was written in order to give disabled children hope and to help mothers and fathers talk with their children about living with physical limitations. The artist's delightful pen-and-ink-drawings bring the story to life."

Animal lovers will be brought to tears, and new fans of the husky will be created for life. These are stories that are adventurous, heartwarming, and never to be forgotten.
