A powerful story for older children to read on their own, say from nine-years-old upwards. This is the tale of a small boy who is very frightened of dogs after being bitten by a dog with rabies. He is adopted by a starving pup called Kitty, and at first wants nothing to do with him, but the boy gradually overcomes his fears and realises that the pup needs him. This is a fable with a strong message about the power of love. It is a very moving story, which will appeal even to young people who aren't very keen on reading.
