A very energetic and entertaining read! I strongly recommend this for anyone who enjoys puppy antics and working dogs.
The book opens as Pippin's brothers and sisters are headed for their own new homes. Only Nigel and Pippin remain on the farm, the only home they have ever known.
Nigel is very rough and tumble. Pippin is quieter, more thoughtful.
Nigel acts before he thinks. If it looks like fun, he goes ahead full speed. Pippin wishes he could be more like Nigel or the older, working dogs.
One day Nigel and Pippin find themselves on an adventure. Pippin feels like he should not follow Nigel, but it turns out to be a good thing the brothers are able to look out for each other.
BUT, can they find their way home again?
This is an exciting read and opens the door for discussions each time you read it.
The illustrations are beautiful and fun.
