A fun and feisty new comedy drama from master storyteller Jean Ure - with a gorgeous new cover look to appeal to all girls who love real-life stories.

When Daniella Cassidy and her best friend Lisa fall in love with the gorgeous puppy in the next door garden, they never imagine they'll end up getting to keep him - that they'll have to save his life - or that he'll lead them into such big trouble...

A crazy real-life adventure about friendship, family, pets - and a plan that spirals out of control.
