Description

Milo's life is almost entirely unremarkable. He lives in a solid kennel in an okay part of town. Every other day he has a job delivering parcels.

Then Milo's life is turned upside down by an argument with his friend Snombo, followed by a strange wild storm that leaves him and his kennel in a precarious place.

So begins Milo's surprisingly remarkable journey back to his friends.

A warm and whimsical adventure by the acclaimed creator of My Uncle's Donkey and Nobody Owns the Moon.

Reviews

"An unusual, moving picture book featuring an engaging protagonist, imaginative artwork, and an adventurous spirit that should appeal to most children. A good choice for middle-to-large collections." --School Library Journal
