Henry and his 180-pound dog Mudge are best friends forever. And in this thirteenth book of their adventures, they make a new friend.

"Kr-Grade 3-A realistic portrayal of life with a BIG, drooling dog and a happy-go-lucky kid who keeps cookies under his bed and lets his fish tank get a little smelly. However, this reality is almost too much for dressed up and proper Cousin Annie-until she discovers her natural talent for playing Frisbee. For the 13th time, Rylant and Stevenson have combined their talents for an on-target, simple story of the everyday adventures of a boy and his dog. Their humor and charming characters are appealing to both beginning readers and adults, making it a tossup as to who will love Henry and Mudge more. Sure to be as popular as its predecessors."
