Mr. Puppy wants to explore the world, but he's trapped in a toy store. When other toys try to discourage his dream, he bravely follows his heart and escapes in a toy flying balloon. Outside he discovers a world of adventure and music.
It's a multicultural experience that celebrates music and promotes unity. An inspiring story about being brave and trusting your heart. Mr. Puppy believes his dream of adventure is the best path and nothing will stop him.
The author states "Mr. Puppy was inspired by events in my life. Working as a photojournalist in hot spots across the world, I saw much suffering and sadness. During one of my expeditions, amidst horrific events, I began to doodle a friendly face from my past, Mr. Puppy.
