Mary Jo is a little girl who loves dogs-but all of the dogs in her family love someone else the best. Then one day she sees a pup in a cup in the local pet store, and she falls in love. But is Mary Jo ready for the responsibility of dog ownership? Is the pup in the cup the one that will love her the best? Paired with honest and beautiful illustrations by a young artist and animal lover, Pup in a Cup tells a true story about dog ownership. Told in the voice of the youngest family member, readers of all ages learn the joy, sorrow, and blessings that come with a dog's love. As she strives to prove to her parents that she's ready for her own dog, Mary Jo discovers the virtues of perseverance and familial love, and a little pup named Chica finds a new best friend.
