I liked it because it showed how your pet can find you again if it gets lost or goes missing.

This book is all about a dog that is lost from home and it found home again. I like the dog because it went on an amazing adventure. It interests me because I saw a dog called buddy on the title. Yes, I would recommend it to others.

I think if someone lost someone during Christmas, don't worry! Santa will find them out and place them exactly where they belong. In this story, Luka said "no" to presents from his parents. We should not say that. Presents from our parents are so special.

I think it is a really good book. My favourite bit was when Buddy found Luka. It was funny when Buddy was in the trash.
