He's been dropped, dragged, and even used as a nose wipe. He decides to strike out for a fresh start, and his adventure takes him across the realm--or at least around the cul-de-sac--in search of treasure, fame, and glory. But these rewards aren't as sweet as Nubby hoped they'd be. What's missing? \u003cbr\u003e As Nubby travels through the neighborhood, his owner's family begins to search for him. Nubby's journey might not have taken him far, but it does teach him one thing: no amount of glory could replace the love of his owner.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDan Richards is a graduate of the University of Washington's Writing for Children Program, where he wrote his debut picture book, \u003ci\u003eThe Problem with NOT Being Scared of Monsters\u003c\/i\u003e.
