Little-or-Nothing from Nottingham

Our rating: ***½

This book is adorable. It’s the story of a dog who is adopted by the Ticket Master of a circus. Due to the dog’s being able to stand its front legs and balance, the Ticket Master puts him in the circus. Nearly every day the Ticket Master gives Little-or-Nothing a bone, which he promptly hides under the Ticket Master’s wagon. But the next morning, the bone is gone!

This phenomenon has a very simple explanation, but it takes Little-or-Nothing awhile to catch on. It’s very cute, and I enjoyed it as a quick “Sit-right-down-by-the-bookshelf-and-read-it-now” book. It’s out of print, but I hope you will be able to find it without much trouble!
