For fans of ALFIE THE DOORSTEP CAT and A STREET CAT NAMED BOB, this is the heart-warming, inspirational story of a loving, cheeky little dog who brings a family in crisis together.
He was the friend they needed...they just didn't know it yet.
When irrepressible, loving beagle Bertie and his sister Molly are adopted separately, it's a disaster. Bertie knows that Molly, with her bad paw, needs him to look after her.
Bertie is taken in by the kind and loving Green family: Mr Green, Granny Margaret, and ten-year-old Sam. But Bertie swiftly realises that the Green family is in crisis. After the tragic death of Sam's mum two years ago, the family hasn't yet recovered - and grief is pulling them apart. Never has a four-legged friend been more in need and brave, warm-hearted Bertie must rise to the challenge.
Can he find Molly - and bring the Green family back together again?
