Why read it?
1 author picked Lost Dog as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I had to read this book backwards, or rather check the end before I could read it at all, and spoiler alert, it has a happy ending.
It’s the heart-rending story of how journalist Kate Spicer adopted the wonderful Wolfie, who became her beloved companion in everything that she did, and how, while staying with her brother he ran away.
It’s the story of her desperate search to find him and about how kind people can be as they helped her scour London for the missing Wolfie.
It’s an absolute nail-bailer, and I loved it.
From Sally's list on dog heroes.
