Media Reviews
A Dog for Life: 'Children of eight to 11 will love it. And so did I.' Telegraph A story which will keep the reader involved until its satisfyingly happy ending. Books for Keeps Fish: 'An allegory grounded in remarkably tactile storytelling ... Matthews allows just enough detail - and heart - to make miracles feel possible.'
