REVIEWS

 

“Both books have been printed in hard cover and are filled with very sweet illustrations so will make the perfect gift for a cheeky 5+ reader with a love of dogs and adventure.”

— Sharon Smith

“I fell in love with Mr Walker when he came to a booksellers’ function. He had the insouciant manner of a well bred dog; he was a golden boy.

Jess Black understands dogs and as you read you feel you could reach down and pat Mr Walker.”
