Mr. Scruff [Book] / Simon James. Mister Scruff. First U.S. edition. Somerville, Massachusetts : Candlewick Press, 2019. 26 unnumbered pages : color illustrations ; 29 cm. "Everyone knows that owners and their dogs belong together in a unique way. Polly belongs to Molly, Eric belongs to Derek, Berry belongs to Terry. But poor Mr. Scruff, alone in the rescue shelter, doesnt belong to anyone. Then a boy named Jim walks in, and they seem to get along. Jim and Mr. Scruff dont look anything alike, and their names certainly dont rhyme, but they may end up belonging to each other just the same. From author-illustrator Simon James comes a warm, winning story about friendship and finding a home. A sweetly silly story of a little boy and a dog who make an unlikely (but perhaps perfect) pair."-- Provided by publisher. 3 yrs - 7 yrs. Preschool - Grade 2. 20190905. Dogs Fiction.
