Hugo and the Impossible Thing

Product Description
Hugo has one goal - to conquer the Impossible Thing.\nAt the edge of the forest stood the Impossible Thing. All the animals in the forest often wondered what was beyond the Impossible Thing, but since everyone said getting through it would be impossible, no animal ever tried.\nUntil a brave little dog named Hugo decides he just might be up to the challenge. With determination and some unexpected help from his friends, Hugo learns that what may seem impossible might just be possible after all.
Review
★ "...Children and caregivers will enjoy Hugo’s can-do attitude and his unjudgmental reception of the initial skepticism shown by the forest crowd. The lush, soft-edged illustrations will display equally well in a lap or at the front of a room... The perfect story for goal-oriented readers (as well as those who need the occasional nudge)." --
