A dog suddenly appears on a street one day and decides to stay. So now he needs to be given a name. But he is too scrawny to be Laddoo, not furry enough to be Fluffy, and too much of a scaredy-dog to be Rambo... What do they call this dog?
A warm and funny vignette of a typical Indian street with assorted people – and a friendly stray!

The neighborhood and community is the star
I enjoyed the different names that people came up with for the dog, and the image that came with each name. The book can humourously lead to the realization that names do not exist in a vacuum. — Anagha Gopal
A book full of love
A charming story of a dog who seems to belong to no one but who finally finds a name and a home. Diversity is naturally embedded in the story that shows the antics of the dog and the open-heartedness of the people. Beautiful illustrations add a layer in presenting the contemporary urban setting. A book full of love, for the dog and for the community that is joined together by its arrival. — Parag Honour List 2024 citation
