Longfellow is a blue Dachshund that has trouble fitting in, and it really gets him down. He has nowhere to call home. He’s short and he’s long. He’s not tough or strong, and he is often passed over by those who are. This story encourages us in dealing with our own awkward issues, and promotes family, loyalty, and finding our special place where we always fit in.
