Inhaltsangabe:

The Dog Who Found Sorrow is a beautiful, resonant picture book about sadness and healing, suitable for all ages.

It tells the story of a dog who, waking to find his hometown covered in thick black clouds, goes out in search of the source of sorrow. It's an intrepid quest, a parable about hope, and a tonic for our sorrowful times.

The gentle fantasy storytelling is accompanied by textured, detailed artwork.
