Full Description
A beautifully captivating look at one dog's bravery during
the war
Judy is a dog who lives on a ship called HMS Grasshopper.
As the ship's mascot, Judy has many duties.
She catches
rats, watches out for soldiers who may fall overboard, and she listens
out for danger.
Judy loves her crew, and they love her.
She knows that she brings comfort to the men, making her job very
important during these hard times. But when her soldiers are
taken prisoner and she is separated from her beloved Frank, she must
find the strength to keep going.
She is their only hope.
This beautiful picture book is a testament to the love
and loyalty of dogs and the importance of animal companions.
Based on a true story, Tom Palmer's debut picture book is a tribute
to a remarkable hero of WWII - Judy the dog
She is the only animal to have been made a prisoner of war and
was awarded the Dickin Medal for her services during the war
Judy is magnificently brought to life with Carolina Rabei's mesmerising
illustrations

the War and Armistice Runner
