A delightfully charming and gentle story about a child wanting a dog and her parents saying no. Instead, she and grandad make a dog, a snow-dome dog, and something magical happens.
There is nothing Nicky wants more in the world than a dog to play with. But Mum and Dad don't want a dog. Then Grandad has an idea - he and Nicky can make a dog: a snow-dome dog.

Even better, he has some special clay, found at the end of a rainbow, so that the dog will be extra-special.
