One day, Bobby and Sandy catch a pickpocket and as a reward Sandy is given a new home, but the loyal pup can't go with him. Then Bobby remembers John Gray, the kindly constable...

This timeless tale of friendship, loyalty and finding a home is perfect for young dog lovers and visitors to Scotland. Historically detailed illustrations from Elena Bia bring life to a gripping story from author Michelle Sloan. Readers both young and old will be moved by the story of how Bobby became the world's most famous dog.

Greyfriars Bobby: A Puppy's Tale Bewertungen

'The story of the faithful Skye Terrier who sat by his master's grave for many years is widely-known. This sweet book, with many delightful illustrations, tells the story, developing from Bobby's early days to his final resting place near John Gray's grave. This will be a delight for young children, and would be an ideal present.'
-- The Edinburgh Reporter

'Gorgeous'
-- Inverness Courier

'Both the words and pictures of this book bring 19th century Edinburgh and its landmarks vividly to life. It is an affectionate portrait of a much-loved character and would be a perfect gift for fans of Scotland's capital, but it is also a hopeful story about friendship that will appeal to readers of all ages -- whether they have travelled to Greyfriars Kirkyard to lay sticks on Bobby's grave, or not.'
-- Roaring Reads

'Lively illustrations bring the Victorian streets of Edinburgh to life.'
