My Brother is a Dog
Synopsis
For years Marietta pestered her parents, but to no avail. But then, on her tenth birthday she gets a magic stone from a child the family is sponsoring in Africa. Alledgedly it can fulfill a person's greatest wish.
One day, Marietta sits on her bed with the magic stone in her hand and wishes as hard for a dog as never before - she would give anything in exchange. A minute later the most amazing thing has happened: the sweetest dog in the world is sitting outside her door. Marietta is delighted and wants to show her brother the miracle, but he seems to have disappeared.
After searching frantically without success Marietta suddenly discovers a mole on the dog's stomach, just where Tobias has one.
