Spunky, independent and curious, Gertrude loves exploring at her favorite place-the beach. On this adventure, she finds a pile of seaweed that turns out to be a dog!
The first problem-how to untangle him and remove all of the seaweed.
The second problem-how to get him home, especially when she discovers one of his paws is broken. After a couple of failed attempts, the only other thing Gertrude can think of to use is her recently deceased grandmother’s wagon. Will it work?
And the third problem-can she keep him? And can the dog help Gertrude heal?
