The Hero Pup is a heartwarming and uplifting story from Megan Rix, bestselling author of The Great Escape, The Victory Dogs, The Bomber Dog and A Soldier's Friend.
'For now Patch is just a Helper Pup,' Joe said. 'But one day . . .'
Eleven-year-old Joe is dreading his first Christmas without Dad.
But then Mum suggests they volunteer for Helper Dogs and train puppies to help people in need.
