Emma and her older sister, Charlotte, share the same birthday and want the same birthday present - a puppy. But the sisters are very different and so are the two dogs. Emma watches her sister's puppy jealously as it seems more fun than hers, and shewon't even choose a name. No One, as her puppy becomes known, manages to win her affection and get a proper name at last.
