Al, a janitor, and his faithful dog, Eddie, live in a single room on the West Side. They eat together, they work together, they do everything together. So what's the problem? Their room is crowded and cramped; their life is an endless struggle. Al and Eddie are practically at eachothers throats when a large and mysterious bird offers them a new life in paradise. After some debate, they decide to accept. Transported to a gorgeous island in the sky, Al and Eddie are soon living a life of ease and luxury. But they come to find that the grass can be a little too green on the other side. After a dramatic, nearly tragic escape from their paradise prison, both man and dog agree: there really is no place like home. 000113982 586__ $$aCaldecott Medal, 1987. 000113982 650_0 $$aJanitors$$vJuvenile fiction. 000113982 650_0 $$aDogs$$vJuvenile fiction. 000113982 650_0 $$aBirds$$vJuvenile fiction. 000113982 7001_ $$aEgielski, Richard,$$eill. 000113982 85200 $$bcmc$$hPZ7.Y819$$iHe$$i1986 000113982 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:113982$$pGLOBAL_SET 000113982 980__ $$aBIB 000113982 980__ $$aBOOK
