Book Summary

Nancy dreams of having a very fancy, or 'posh,' puppy. When her parents surprise her with a dog, it's not fancy at all. Nancy tries to make her new dog, Frenchy, posh with tiaras and tutus, but Frenchy prefers to be a playful, normal dog. Nancy learns to love Frenchy just the way he is, realizing that true love means accepting others for who they are.
