The Naming of Dogs is a difficult matter, as Ogden and his<br> big brother discover in this most charming of collaborations<br> between Rhoda Levine and Edward Gorey. You see, the<br> sheepdog was sitting patiently in the back yard when the family<br> moved in. No one mentioned that there would be a sheepdog<br> in the yard, but there he was. He seemed to be waiting for<br> something, and the family, especially Ogden, is determined<br> to find out what it is. Does the dog want dinner? a lollipop? a<br> stray cat? conversation? No, what the dog wants is—a name!<br> But you can't just choose any name for a grown-up dog. No,<br> it has to be the right name. And with a little patience, and a<br> lot of persistence, the brothers might just figure out just what<br> that name is.
