ISBN10: 0312558066, ISBN13: 9780312558062, [publisher: Square Fish] Softcover Paperback. "What a good dog you are. What a fine dog you are. Hachi, you are the best dog in all of Japan." Professor Ueno speaks these words to his faithful dog before boarding the train to work every morning. And every afternoon, just before three o'clock, Hachi is at the train station to greet his beloved master. One day, the train arrives at the station without the professor. Hachi waits. For ten years, Hachi waits for his master to return. Not even Yasuo, the young boy who takes care of Hachi, can persuade him to leave his post. Hachiko Waits, a novel inspired by a true story, brings to life the legendary Akita who became a national symbol for loyalty and devotion. This is a must-read for dog lovers of all ages. Hachiko Waits is a 2005 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year. The loyalty and devotion of a dog has no bounds as Newman's novel is inspired by the true story of a faithful dog in Tokyo who met his master at the train station every day and continued to wait for him for ten years after his master's death. Illustrations. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
