Simon and the Better Bone

Using the same innovative format as his Caldecott Honor winner, Mel Fell , Corey R. Tabor reimagines Aesop''s "The Dog and His Reflection" in a clever, charming tale of empathy and generosity. One day, down by the pond, Simon meets another dog just like him. And that dog has a bone just like his, only better! How will Simon ever get him to trade, when the other pup knows all the same tricks...?
