The humorous story of a little boy and a dog who are destined to be together!

Polly belongs with Molly, Eric belongs with Derek, Perry belongs with Terry - everyone knows that owners and their dogs belong together in their own unique way. But for Poor Mr Scruff, alone in the dogs' home, there's no one - that is until a very special little boy arrives looking for a friend...

A wonderful, witty and warm story about the true nature of friendship from award-winning author-illustrator Simon James.

"There's a gently inclusive message here to look past your preferences, and outside your bubble, and welcome all kinds of different people in your life.
