First sentence: HENRY HUGGINS' dog Ribsy was a plain ordinary city dog, the kind of dog that strangers usually called Mutt or Pooch.
Description: Poor Ribsy! Somehow he's gotten himself hopelessly lost in a huge shopping mall parking lot in a rainstorm. Ribsy runs all over looking for the Huggins' family car. He gets soaking wet. Horns honk at him. People yell at him. Ribsy is frantic. That's when he jumps in the window of a car he thinks belongs to the Huggins family, and falls asleep exhausted. When Ribsy wakes up, he finds he's made a terrible mistake. He's in a car with the wrong family...speeding along in the wrong direction, with five noisy children petting him and talking about giving him a bath! Poor Ribsy! All he wants to do is go home and be Henry Huggins' dog again. Instead, he's about to begin the liveliest adventures of his life!
