Description
A celebration of community, adventure, kindness and, above all, dogs!
The summer holidays have finally arrived, and Scout can’t wait for her adventure in the big rig with Dad. They’re on a mission to deliver donations of dog food to animal rescue shelters right across the state.
There’ll be lots of music, dad-jokes, and a brilliant plan that will make sure everyone’s got a friend for the holidays. There might even be a special four-legged friend in it for Scout.
But Scout and her dad get more than they’ve bargained for. It’s bushfire season – and it’s not just the dogs who need rescuing...
Winner of Children's Book of the Year category, 2024 Western Australian Premier's Book Awards
