"So..." Shola wagged her tail doubtfully, "if I'm a lion, why does Grogoinsist on calling me a mere mutt?" Shola is sure that her noble nature and ambitions of grandeur mean only one thing - that she is, in fact, not a dog but a lioness. To the bemusement of her long-suffering owner, Senor Grogo, she sets off to prove her heroic status to the world (and to herself). If only those pesky ducks, nonchalant cats and tempting snacks weren't there to stand in her way...The Adventures of Shola was an Independent Children's Book of the Year 'Fabulous...will make you laugh your socks off' Guardian Children's Books 'Shola is a charming, short creature stuffed with charisma and fierce ideas, and so is the book about her' Bookbag

Revue de presse :
Praise for The Adventures of Shola:

'Fabulous... the illustrations are superb and humorous... the storyline is very engaging and will make you laugh your socks off and spread a grin on your face' - Guardian Children's Books

'The most clever and ridiculous dog you've ever heard of ... fantastic' - reader's review, Guardian Children's Books

'Translated from the Basque by Margaret Jull Costa and lavishly illustrated by Mikel Valverde, these gently ironic stories about another small dog whose aspirations regularly outrun her abilities are totally charming' - Independent

'First Spot, then Snowy and now Shola - children's literature has an illustrious history of plucky S-name canines... Mikel Valverde's illustrations are, like the best of cartoon strips, wittily and expressively detailed' - Fiona McKim, Junior

'Charming, funny and heart-warming stories, beautifully packaged and affectionately and cleverly illustrated' - Lancashire Evening Post

'Shola is a charming, short creature stuffed with charisma and fierce ideas, and so is the book about her' - Bookbag
