The Cloudspotter
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Everyone called Franklin 'The Cloudspotter'. But he didn't just spot clouds. He spotted adventures in the sky - that way, he could have an exciting life with his cloud-friends.
One day, The Scruffy Dog arrives. But The Cloudspotter doesn't want to share his clouds with anyone. The infuriating Scruffy Dog sticks with The Cloudspotter night and day. So he pops her into a hot-air balloon and lets her fly away. Alone.
Suddenly, The Cloudspotter is lonely. He misses The Scruffy Dog. So when the balloon lands, he sets off to find his cloudspotting friend.
Appealing and humorous illustrations accompany this heart-warming story about friendship and loneliness.
