Milan lebte in Kroatien, war allein und er wünschte sich eine Familie. Als eine Sternschnuppe vom Himmel flog, war dies sein größter Wunsch. Er hatte kurz die Hoffnung, als er bei einer alten Frau leben konnte. Die Hoffnung ging jedoch nicht in Erfüllung und Milan landete in einer Tötungsstation. Es gab nur eine Möglichkeit weiter zu leben, wenn er nach Deutschland vermittelt werden würde. Er hatte Glück und die Reise begann. Im Tierheim Freiburg entdeckte ihn Nicole. Es war Liebe auf den ersten Blick. Milan zog bei Nicole ein und es stellte sich schnell heraus, Milan musste noch viel lernen. Die Hundeschule wartete auf ihn, beim Tierarzt musste er eine Operation über sich ergehen lassen und ein Abenteuer mit einem Wasser-Strudel war sehr aufregend. Es war Platzmangel in der kleinen Wohnung und Milan zog mit Nicole in ein Haus mit Garten. Sein Sternschnuppen-Wunsch ging langsam in Erfüllung. Milan fand einen treuen Hundefreund Jakob, mit dem er viel Quatsch machen konnte. Leider wurde er auch von einem fremden Hund gebissen und musste erst wieder gesund werden. Er wurde immer freier und mutiger und am Schluss lud man ihn als Kollege zu einer Grillparty ein. Nicole und Milan gingen durch dick und dünn und wuchsen zu einer wahren Freundschaft zusammen.
Every morning in the Japanese town of Shibuya, Professor Ueno awakens and is greeted by his loyal Akita dog, Hachiko. They enjoy a breakfast together before the professor leaves to catch the train to the school where he teaches. And Hachiko sits at the station eagerly awaiting his master's return. Then one afternoon Professor Ueno does not return. And Hachiko waits. Days and weeks pass and still no one-not even the young boy Yasuo who comes to care for him-can persuade the faithful dog to leave his post. Years go by and yet still he waits. In time, Hachiko will come to be remembered and honored throughout Japan for his singular devotion. Poet, author, and animal advocate Leslea Newman earned an ASPCA Henry Bergh Children's Book Honor and scores of other accolades for this touching tale based on a true story. Sprinkled throughout with Japanese vocabulary words, this audio production serves as an excellent introduction to a different culture while simultaneously illustrating the universality of human emotions.
