The Million Dollar Dog

The story is about a boy named Henry, his mom and the boy's first puppy, Fredo. Henry and his mom don't have very much but they do have each other. The lessons taught by the boy's mom throughout the story are how to be thankful for what you have and the value of family over material value. This lesson becomes most apparent to Henry when he is faced with a choice involving his new best friend, his million dollar dog Fredo.
