The Dog Who Wanted to Play

Dog had big teeth and sharp claws. His bark was like thunder.
Tommy was afraid and ran away. Dog ran faster.
This is a story for everyone who has ever been afraid of the unknown.

The Dog Who Wanted to Play was inspired by the 19th century poem "The Hound of Heaven" by Francis Thompson.

Like Aslan in C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia, Dog, the good shepherd, cares even for those who run away from him.
