Franco and Pirata


Book Description
Set against the historic and scenic backdrops of Rome, this picture-book tells the tale of Franco and his dog Pirata. When Pirata is lost during a flood in the Tiber, Franco experiences a crisis of faith, refuses to anticipate in the approach of Christmas. The boy's search for his beloved pet -- a veritable Carol -- illustrates the true spirit of Christmas. A book for all ages.
