Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When Julia heard about the dog show, she was thrilled. Huxley may have seemed like an ordinary dog, but Julia knew he was a winner. Huxley can run. He can jump. He can even do a triple back flip! But the competition is fierce, and soon other kids are stealing the spotlight with their fire-breathing, levitating extraterrestrial pets. What will it take to win Best in Show?This heartfelt, hilarious picture book celebrates the value of losing gracefully as well as the bond between children and their loving pets--from robot cats to glittery dragons, glowing aliens, handsome unicorns, and precious dogs. For fans of Elise Parsley's Neck & Neck and Can I Be Your Dog? by Troy Cummings.
After Julia and her dog Huxley enter a very unusual dog show they quickly realize the challenges of competing against fire-breathing, levitating, extraterrestrial pets, but good-natured Huxley gives it his all.
