The Dog Who Lost His Bark

by Eoin Colfer

A warm, uplifting story for young readers about a boy and his dog and the power of music to heal; a first-time collaboration from two Irish Children’s Laureates.

Patrick has been desperate for a dog of his own for as long as he can remember – and this summer, with his father away, he longs for a buddy more than ever. In his short doggy life, Oz has suffered at the hands of BAD PEOPLE. Somewhere out there, he believes, is an AWESOME BOY – his BOY. Maybe when they find each other he will learn to BARK again...

I enjoyed this short novel about a rescue puppy who saves a little boy.

Trigger warning: animal abuse

I receive this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
