Paulie's Tale Adventures in Washington DC (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798295514654)

When a curious marmot gets separated from his family in Washington DC, an unexpected friendship changes everything.

Paulie can hardly believe he's finally in Washington DC-the nation's capital and the city of his dreams! With his American flag hat on and his family by his side, he's ready to explore every monument and memorial.

But when a slice of watermelon catches his eye, everything changes in an instant.

Lost and alone in the biggest city he's ever seen, Paulie must navigate crowded sidewalks, towering monuments, and a scary first night away from home. That's when he meets Sidney-a stray dog who knows the streets of D.C. and understands what it's like to be alone.
