| Summary |
"Don, a Runaway Dog: His Many Adventures" by Richard Barnum is a children's story written in the early 20th century. The tale follows the adventures of Don, a young puppy who ventures out into the world after running away from his comfortable home with his mother and siblings. As he explores, he encounters various challenges and other animals, learning valuable lessons about bravery, friendship, and the value of home. The opening of the story introduces Don as one of five puppies living with their mother, Mrs. Gurr. Initially, the puppies are unaware of the world outside their kennel, as they are too young to open their eyes. As they grow, they experience the joys of exploration, including playing and encountering other animals. Don is soon chosen by a boy named Bob to be his pet, leading to his transition from a sheltered life to a series of exciting adventures as he navigates the challenges and unfamiliarity of his new surroundings.
