Ernie and the Magic Kernel
A delightful rhyming text about finding a place to belong, a family whether by birth or by choice.
Ernie is a royal dog pampered and spoiled living a privileged life. Benny is a street dog who lives a carefree life but would love to find a home. One day Benny receives an invitation to Ernie’s palace and a request to collect other dogs along the way. What will Benny find when he arrives?
