A Job for Kingsley

Description

Kingsley has decided to get a job.

This is not a decision to be taken lightly. After all, a job is a BIG responsibility. But finding the right kind of job is much harder than Kingsley expected. Some jobs are tricky for paws. Some jobs are difficult to understand. And some just don't seem to appreciate a dog's work ethic the way they should.

Will Kingsley ever find a job that is exactly right? A sweet, tender and deeply funny story about the power of friendship, belonging, and one dog's mission to find the perfect job.
