Description: When a mute, nameless foxhound gets rescued from her laboratory cage, a diva ladybug helps her understand the world and find a home with a restless, solitary girl. The dog and the girl must face their fear of connecting and learn to tame each other, let go, survive adventures, and find the courage to trust as they search for their place in the sun.--Publisher.
