(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tull Suwannakit. Mr. and Mrs. Cripps become the reluctant owners of an unnamed dog, who names himself "Sad." When the Cripps move away, leaving Sad behind, the family that moves into the house includes a boy named Jack who loves "Lucky" on sight. Muted watercolors capture a wide range of emotion and personality, both human and canine, in a winsome, winning tale.
