ACHUKA Book of the Day 26 Jul 2022
Debut title as author/illustrator. [Adam Beer is currently shortlisted for the 2022 Klaus Flugge Prize for his illustrations in Mammoth by Anna Kemp.]
Meet Solo the dog. This is his island – and these are his things and his humans. So when a group of other dogs turn up, Solo doesn’t like it, not one bit — and he tells them so quite firmly. He doesn’t want to share his things and he thinks they’re running out of control — although it does look quite fun.
But once the others have gone, Solo finds that he misses his new friends, and races to get them back.
Will Solo come to see that no dog is an island, and that some things are just better with friends?
