Tim and Mary meet a small dog in the playground and they are thrilled when their newfound tiny canine friend gives them a very friendly smile!
Unfortunately Tim and Mary are later set upon by two mean bullies, but when things are looking quite bad for them, they are saved by a voice. A mysterious voice that came from nowhere? Or so it seemed to the two children.
Later when the brother and sister are having fun flying their kites, the two mean bullies one again interrupt their fun and Tim accidentally lets the kite's string go, and it starts to fly away. But as quick as a flash their canine friends catches the kite and then shocks them by talking to them!
They agree to keep his secret, after all a talking dog is a rare thing!
After a third incident with the bullies the two siblings find that the little dog has been injured and they take him to the local vet who examines him, including his special vocal chords, and tends to his wounds.
Tim and Mary take the dog home so that he can recuperate and not only does he tell them the amazing story of his life, he also revealed that his name was Tadcaster.
Will Tadcaster be able to help Tim and Mary by defeating the two nasty bullies once and for all time?
And you'll be amazed at the outSTANdingly brilliant job that they arranged for him!
It has some lovely line drawings and will be a great book for any family, especially those bothered by bullies, I feel.
Go on, mum! Dad! Buy this book for your children, it's £7.99 from Matador.
