| Summary |
"Little Dog Ready: How He Lost Himself in the Big World" by Mabel F. Stryker is a children's story published in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventurous journey of a little dog named Ready, who gets lost while trying to return to his beloved master, Dick. Through a series of encounters with other animals, both friendly and unfriendly, Ready learns about courage, loyalty, and determination. The story begins with Ready's misadventure after he runs away from home while his master is injured. Captured by an unkind family, he endures a period of captivity from which he eventually escapes. As he makes his way back home, Ready encounters various creatures who aid or challenge him, including chipmunks, swallows, and a sandpiper. Each interaction teaches Ready valuable lessons about kindness and friendship. Ultimately, after overcoming numerous obstacles and setbacks, Ready finds his way back to his home, reuniting joyfully with Dick, who had been longing for his pet's return. This heartwarming tale captures the essence of a dog's loyalty and the adventurous spirit that accompanies youthful exploration. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
