MY DOG
BLURB
This is the story of a real war, seen through the eyes of a young boy as he searches for his family. Alija’s only companion is his dog, but his optimism and courage in the face of adversity are both touching and inspiring.
Andrew McLean’s superb illustrations capture perfectly the landscape, mood and warmth of John Heffernan’s powerful and poignant story.
