(3) K-3 Illustrated by Lisa Flather. Dog wants a real name, like Digger or Swiftfoot, so he resolves to earn one. But when acting out the names he wants gets him nowhere and behaving well almost gets him called "Honeybun," Dog decides it's not so bad being just "Dog" after all. Oram's well-told story and Flather's expressive illustrations imbue Dog with personality and charm.
