Scruffy by Barbara Spencer, is a charming little story
promoting the responsibilities of pet ownership through a funny,
yet heart-rending, tale of a puppy abandoned.
Schoolchildren, as young as five, have created the illustrations.
They are the winners
of a Somerset-wide competition in which six-hundred children took part.
Based on the adventures of a real-life Scruffy, the book is dedicated to Bristol
Dog’s Home.
