Summary:

"An adorable dog helps his family welcome a new baby after their gift goes missing in this warm and funny picture book from the award-winning creator of Drawn Together. Road trip! There's a new baby cousin in the family and a boy and his dog, Miles, can't wait to take a trip to deliver them a shiny new present. There's only one problem: in all the chaos of packing, the present has gone missing! In a rush to recover it, the boy encourages his family to retrace their steps around the house, but the only things they can find are an old blankie, a favorite stuffie, and his beloved booties. Luckily, Miles has excellent canine smarts and just might be able to sniff out a solution. . . Told with lively dialogue, playful, detailed illustrations, and a clever ending, here is a story about one family's discovery of what makes a gift truly special."-- Provided by publisher.
