À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'You probably think it's fun being a dog, but a dog's life isn't just running about, fetching sticks, and rolling over. Some of us have to work for a living.'

For this ordinary working dog, an average working day, keeping an eye on his master, the builder and the rest of the townsfolk, is about to change dramatically...

Michael Foreman's gripping tale of a spectacular sea rescue in a Cornish fishing village is captured vividly through the atmospheric watercolour paintings that have won him numerous awards. He is twice winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal.

'Dramatic seascapes and much humour in the telling.' The Bookseller
