Publisher's Summary

A heart-warming animal tale of bravery and friendship between a lost boy, a daring girl and the dog next door - from an author celebrated for her honest, heartfelt and inclusive stories.

Marcus and Delilah couldn't be more different.

He is as big as she is tiny. As angry and lost as she is tremendous and brave.

But they share a dream: to own a dog of their own.

So when a mystery pup turns up in the empty house next door, Marcus can't believe his luck. He visits him every night and names him Moon Dog.

But it's soon clear that Moon Dog is in danger, and when Marcus and Delilah discover a dark secret it will test their bravery and their friendship.

Can they work together to save their dream dog?

From the much-loved author of A Room Full of Chocolate. Perfect for fans of Michael Morpurgo and I, Cosmo.

Good for children who are dog lovers

The narration is wonderful; it works with the switching of perspectives for each chapter. However, I listened to this audiobook with the intention of teaching it to Grade 7 and I believe the story is okay. It explores a tiny bit of darker themes like dysfunctional families and depression. But it definitely has friendship, belonging and the love for dogs as its main themes.

I think it won't be a good book for Grades 7 up. But primary school would work fine if the kids are dog lovers.
