Author: Fraillon, Zana
A powerful; inventive; sweet and deeply moving novel from the bestselling author of The Bone Sparrow
Be strong. Be fierce. Life is more than a concrete floor.
Scruffity is born into the harsh; grey world of a puppy farm. Taken from his mamma and locked in a concrete cage; what he yearns for most is Family. To belong is The Way of Dog. But no one wants him.
Just as his chances of adoption grow dangerously thin; Scruffity is set free by a boy as unwanted and lonely as he is.
Outside; Scruffity learns all about The Way of Dog - it is to run; to dig; to howl and; biggest of all; to love. But when tragedy strikes; Scruffity is suddenly all alone.
How does a dog find his way home when he never had one to begin with?
