The Dog Who Saved The World

you will enjoy it

Fabulous book, perfect for 11 year Old’s independent reading. I’ve enjoyed reading it to my son. However, it’s about a terrifying virus which starts in China and spreads round the world causing mass euthanasia of dogs... bit scary during Coronavirus times, so I wouldn’t read this during a pandemic.

Very very slow to start and engage my daughter she in fact abandoned it and I carried on reading it. A few books have been slow to begin, except Time Travelling with my Hamster. Still I loved it and who would have thought Ross Welford wrote about a pandemic that we are all actually living through now. I love this author.

I read this book much more quickly than the author's previous books (which I loved just as much). This is because it is quite an action-adventure, although still with all the humour and attention to scientific accuracy that we have come to expect from his books. The characters are extremely well-drawn and the tension builds and builds....thoroughly recommended. And he never ever talks down to his audience. I always imagine that children and teens who read Welford's books must become so much more literate and smart, with a better vocabulary...

Present for my daughter ... hopefully she’ll enjoy this book as much as his others... I totally love them too.

My son loved this book. It's a wonderful story. Thank you!
