Book Description
“I wanted to create a story for the very little ones that conveyed the message of the song about the miracle that happens one sunny day to a tenacious little puppy who refuses to give up and catches his dream,” said Ann Wilson.“It's my hope that, read aloud, it will be a fun and happy experience for readers and children, teaching the gentle lessons of patience and optimism. We tried to give the illustrations lots of character and color, so that Dog & Butterfly becomes a permanent addition to the ‘story-before-bed’ shelf!”

a beautiful, happy book by a legendary bandJuly 1, 2010 Ella M. Smith I absolutely love 'Dog & Butterfly' -- it captures the essence of the song perfectly. I bought a copy for myself to have for my children one day, as well as a copy for a friend's child. I think that it is a wonderful gift that I plan on giving to the children in my life for years to come.

Lyrics transformedJanuary 2, 2010 S. Gregory(Louisiana) Having loved the music of the sisters Wilson for many years, I was intrigued at the idea of a book for my young grandgirl. I was not disappointed. The story was simple and sweet and the illustrations were magnificent. Thanks Ann & Nancy !
Cute book! But!December 15, 2009 Gordon Pearcy(Brigantine, NJ) I love Ann & Nance but, the book was cut off at the top. I would sayabout 2 to 3 inches. " dog &" wasn't even there! It looked like the book was called just " butterfly "! It's not Ann & nance's fault. Just some shoddy work from the publisher
