Be strong. Be fierce. Life is more than a concrete floor.

Scruffity is born into a harsh, grey world. What he yearns for
most is Family. But no one wants him. Just as his chances of adoption
grow thin, Scruffity is set free by a boy as unwanted as he
is.

He learns how to run, to dig, to howl and, biggest of all, to
love. But then tragedy strikes …

How does a dog find his way home when he never had one to begin
with?

A heartfelt, wondefully written and totally compelling
story of love and belonging

Told through the eyes of a young pup, Scruffity, who
will tug at your heartstrings

Themes of friendship, loss and hope are woven through
a gripping narrative

Stunning illustrations by Sean Buckingham
