Elise and the second-hand dog.
By Bjarne Reuter; illustrated by Kirsten Raagaard; translated from the Danish by Sian Mackie.
Elise is lonely. Her mum is far away in Brazil helping to finish the building of a suspension bridge and her dad is busy trying to get by as a musician in the Danish city of Copenhagen where they live. So when Elise asks for a dog to keep her company, her dad finds it hard to refuse. But the dog that Elise ends up with is no ordinary dog. He is second-hand, he looks like an ugly rabbit, he smells of cheese... and he can talk!
