What would you do if a hungry dog ate your ice cream cone, and then decided to adopt you?
The dog is Ribsy. Henry Huggins tries to take him home on the bus. But Ribsy ends up inside a shopping bag. No one on the bus ever forgets that ride!
It's Ribsy and Henry together after that, with something happening all the time. Is Ribsy or Henry to blame when Scooter's brand new football goes for a sudden automobile ride? How is Henry Huggins ever going to get out of that awful part in the Christmas play?
No sooner does Henry's green hair grow out, then Ribsy becomes a pale pink dog. What next? You never can tell—with Henry and Ribsy around!
