Home At Last is the sweet story of a young boy named Lester who excitedly waits outside the children’s center for his new parents to pick him up. After a long adoption process, he can finally join Daddy Albert, Daddy Rich, and their dog Wincka at his new home. He loves his new family, but he runs into a problem when he is unable to fall asleep at night because he is overwhelmed with worry. Each night upon attempting to crawl into bed with his parents, they lead him right back to his bedroom. Finally, their beloved dog Wincka is the one who has the perfect solution to help Lester calm his nighttime anxiety and overcome his fears.
