Dalmartian: A Mars Rover’s Story
Lucy Ruth Cummins, illustrated by Lucy Ruth Cummins
One summer night, visitors that resemble Dalmatians arrive in Stephen’s yard by spaceship. Their green spots reveal that they are no ordinary dogs, and one is left behind when the others flee. Stephen invites the visitor inside, where they negotiate how to share a bed. The next day brings more surprises: the visitor rejects dog food, dislikes a leash, walks upright, and has different ideas about the dog park. Stephen and his unusual guest spend time learning about local history, plants, and animals.
