All Ribsy wanted to do that ordinary Saturday morning was ride along with his boy, Henry Huggins, in the family’s new station wagon. But a wild turn of events leaves Ribsy lost in a rainy mall parking lot, discovered by a rowdy group of little girls, and taken to a strange home where he’s scrubbed with flower-scented shampoo and petted half to death.

Ribsy is desperate to find Henry, but he hits a roadblock when he can’t pick up Henry’s scent. Ribsy’s quest to get back home will take him places he never imagined going–but if it reunites him with the boy who saved his life, every step of the way will be worth it.
