Soon it becomes clear: the destinies of boy and dog are linked, and always will be...

It's a sad tale but a good one. A brave boy and a brave dog during a war. Michael Morpurgo writes books full of history but from a story perspective. Giving a life to these events that a non-fiction book can't give you.
