But the black-and-white mutt does nothing to ease their crabbiness. If anything, the dog's presence makes it worse. He is unwanted, although the couple do feed and clean him. They don't give him a name, however, other than Hey, you or Dog. The dog names himself Sad. His beautiful "singing" is seen as yapping by Mr. Cripps, and Sad is scolded. Mrs. Cripps screams when Sad digs in the garden, and when the newspaper gets torn, the pup just lies there being sad. One day the Cripps up and move, leaving Sad behind. He is lonely and howls the night away, but Sad's luck is about to change. The next day a new family moves in, and the young boy, Jack, is excited to see that their new home comes with a dog. Sad is a bit wary, however. Nevertheless, with some coaxing by his new friend—as well as clean water, walks, and treats—Sad is soon running, digging, barking, and playing. He likes his new name, too—Lucky. The watercolor illustrations nicely capture the expressions of the characters in the story—from Sad's dejection to the Crippses' squinty-eyed crabbiness to Jack's delight at meeting his new friend. The layout is balanced, and the book will be easy to use in a storytime setting. VERDICT A sweet, sentimental story and a pleasing supplemental purchase.—Roxanne Burg, Orange County Public Library, CA Read more Review The watercolor pictures are done in soft colors and whimsical line...Younger children may also relate to Sad the dog's being yelled at for activities that are perfectly natural to him.—Kirkus ReviewsThe layout is balanced, and the book will be easy to use in a storytime setting. A sweet, sentimental story and a pleasing supplemental purchase.—School Library JournalThis picture book from Australia is a vivid reminder of how much animals learn from humans as well as what humans can learn from animals. Sad is, indeed, very Lucky once the right person befriends him. Those animal “owners” who behave irresponsibly, never allowing their dogs to play or even deserting them need to read this book as a reminder that animals matter and have feelings.—Literacy DailyA satisfying story.—The New York Times Read more See all Editorial Reviews ## Images ![Sad, the Dog Hardcover – October 13, 2015 - Image 1](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/519OyvSPesL.jpg) ![Sad, the Dog Hardcover – October 13, 2015 - Image 2](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51aT8J3RIlL.jpg) ![Sad, the Dog Hardcover – October 13, 2015 - Image 3](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51CF6kTuL%2BL.jpg) ![Sad, the Dog Hardcover – October 13, 2015 - Image 4](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/31LVVfEgU6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heartwarming! *by F***E on November 20, 2016* A beautiful book, tender and thoughtful...even though very sad at the beginning it has a wonderful happy ending...heartwarming!
