A dog is too loud, a snake is too scary, a horse is too big. A guinea pig? Free verse poems tell us how Theodore the Guinea Pig got his name and how his new owner learns to care for him. Getting to know someone new takes time and patience, but friendship and trust are worth the effort.

Join Down Girl and Sit, two canine friends, as they relate their summer adventures: driving alone in the car, taking a trip to the beach, visiting the vet, and going on a camping trip. On the camping trip, Down Girl encounters a ferocious and strange new kind of squirrel with long ears that twitches its nose. These tales are told by a dog who thinks she understands the way the world works, but is hilariously mistaken. She thinks her name is Down Girl for goodness sakes!
