As the family is on their walk, they find a stray --- something. They bring it home and try to make a place for it in their family, but something is always different. And as the days go by, their guest becomes sadder and sadder, so they decide to do what they can to help it find its place.


A cute but ultimately not memorable story.  Great for large, busy libraries.
