Meet Lizzie and Lucky – a sparky young detective and her loyal dalmatian sidekick!

Lizzie is on a mission to solve the case of the disappearing puppies...

Lizzie is desperate for a dog. In order to convince her parents to get one, she has to come up with 101 reasons why she needs one. Lizzie is a master at making lists, so thinking of 101 reasons is going to be easy! Especially as she could train a dog to be her hearing dog.

But as Lizzie begins compiling her list, she witnesses an adorable puppy being snatched away and put into a van by a mysterious-looking man. Can Lizzie solve the case – and maybe find herself a loyal friend at the same time...?
