About The Book
In his debut novel for young readers, Martin Booth shares the origins of military dogs through the tale of a brave black Labrador that was claimed as an infantry patrol dog in World War II.

A charming and sweet tale, War Dog is a fast-paced story about a remarkable dog your young reader will surely come to love.
