the book I read :D

IT'S A DOGS LIFE!
This book is about a young man who has a hobby for caring for dogs. Sometimes he can actually get bullied but his passion lives on. His family runs a kennel where they care for dogs. Neil, the young boys name goes to school where they have a new headteacher who everyone hates; he is so grumpy and stingy. Neil doesn't just like dogs but any animal so when the new headteacher makes a ban of the school pets, it's not going to go down well with Neil and his boisterous sister. Running a kennel is not good when Neil's mum gets attacked by one of the abandoned dogs taken to the kennels. She doesn't want to admit it that because of that accident she is now afraid of dogs. Duke was the name of the dog that bit her and with his unpredictable personality, what will be his future? Neil tries to get his mum to like dogs again by introducing his mum to a small abandoned dog before anything big. Big plans are made to stop the school pets from being banned, but will the hard work pay off or will they be taken away? And will Neil's mum ever like dogs again?



My favourite character from this book is Neil's sister, Emily. When the new headteacher announces no pets are allowed, she is an eager fighter to make sure they are kept. Overall I would give this book a 4/5 star rating.
