With her cone, she gets trapped in the doggy door. And she doesn't command the same respect she once did at the dog park. Through funny challenges and mortifications, Joan reflects on her pre-cone glory days, including what led to her injury (let's just say, certain choices were made). But with time, Joan begins to see there is love and life and joy beyond the rim of the cone—and sometimes popcorn inside it too, because, it turns out, the cone makes a great snack bowl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis picture book is guaranteed to make kids and caregivers laugh, and see the trials of life—and dogs in cones—in a whole new way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e“Dynamic, expressive, and funny.” —\u003ci\u003eKirkus\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e“A perfect read-aloud for children, especially [to teach] resilience and acceptance.” —\u003ci\u003eSLJ\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBound to become a family favorite. —Cracking the Cover\u003c\/b\u003e\"A reflection on the importance of remembering good days to help make it through bad ones and how bad days can help you appreciate the good.
