The Dog Who Lost his Bark

Patrick has been desperate for a dog of his own for as long as he can remember - and this summer, with his father away, he longs for a buddy more than ever.

In his short life, the poor dog Oz has suffered at the hands of bad people. Somewhere out there, he believes, is someone that will treat him with love. Maybe when they find each other, he will learn to bark again...

A warm, uplifting story for young readers about a boy, his dog and the power of music to heal. A first-time collaboration from two Irish Children's Laureates.
