The first in a series of amazing (and almost true ) stories of a girl named Clara and her little black dog, Pockets. Each page is filled with large, brightly-colored original illustrations taken from watercolors painted by the author. "The "Pockets" books help teach children some small lessons about life: being happy, laughing, sharing, playing with others, and being a friend." In this adventure, Clara loses her happiness and it's up to Pockets to help her find it again.
