The First Dog to be Somebody's Best Friend a Likely Story in Two Bits and a Decide
|
|
This Inquisitive dog-loving Child (of which there are very many on Planet Earth) learns without being told that the Dog is Man's Best Friend. But how did this come about?
This story was lost in the mists of time. For century upon century . . . until now!
At last, in 2007, Tom Stacey has found out and written down the full and deeply moving story, which he has shared in every detail with Angela Landels who has drawn the pictures of how it happened. Out Now! |

Angela Landels - Angela Landels started illustrating children's books when she was still at school. She went on to become Art Director for major fashion magazines, and won two awards for design and fashion drawing.
