Alice Cardini: London Unleashed, Gebunden

Klappentext

A heartfelt middle-grade dog story about friendship, family change, and finding where you belong---one leash at a time.

Twelve-year-old Cat Parker knows 360 dog breeds by heart, but she's never been allowed a dog of her own. So when her dad leaves and her mom uproots her from New York to London, Cat decides it's time to take back control: she'll start a dog-walking business and become London's top dog walker.

Soon Cat is juggling tangled leashes, runaway beagles, British slang, and street names that don't make sense. And when she meets a mysterious neighbor with a secret of his own, things get even more complicated---until one particular pup changes everything.
