Our pets form a very special part of our lives. They deserve all of our love and respect. But unfortunately, the number of animals who are abandoned and mistreated continues to grow. Chocolate's Dream is the tale of a little dog who is looking for a home. This is a story to help make children and adults aware of the need to respect our pets, and to be responsible and care for the animals who give us all of their unconditional love and loyalty.

This very tender story is illustrated by Cha Coco and written by Elisabet Blasco. The sensitive ones will drop a few drops of tears." --Revista BLI
"Chocolate's Dream narrates a fact that happens frequently in society and helps to sensitize the new generations." -Infantilandia
"It is almost impossible to finish reading this story without getting emotional. A story that, despite referring to a tough topic such as animal abandonment, does not stop transmitting a positive and hopeful message. Cha Coco's sweet pastel illustrations accompany a clear, broad text." -Apegoyliteratura
