Bitza Book 1
A heartwarming and fabulously funny junior fiction series for girls and boys, told from the point of view of a dog looking for a new family. From irreverent funny man and unashamed mutt dog lover, Andrew Daddo, bestselling author of more than 50 books for younger readers, and illustrated by proven mutt dog expert, Stephen Michael King!
I'm Bitza the dog!
A bit Labrador and a bit Poodle. A bit Kelpy and Staffy and maybe even Hound. Lots of different dog bits make up the lot of me. I'm also a bit lost.
A good dog always looks after its ball, which is why I followed Jasper and the ball thief home from the park. She was looking for a dog, I was looking for a home. It's perfect ... unless Dad gets his way.
