The touching story of a deaf puppy who finds a loving home.

The story of Ceasar is based on a true story. It is an endearing story of a deaf puppy who is given a second chance to become someone's beloved pet, rather than being "put to sleep" as an unadoptable stray. It is shows the triumph of determination, on the part of his human companion, to train Cesear despite his handicap. The companiaon tape recording enhances the reading experience.
