    A favorite story for generations of readers, originally published in 1952.

    Once upon a time there was a funny dog named Crispin’s Crispian. He was named Crispin’s Crispian because he belonged to himself.
    So begins the story of a dog who runs bang into a little boy, who also belongs to himself. This quirky story—with breathtaking illustrations by Garth Williams—is one of Margaret Wise Brown’s best.
