What's That in Dog Years? cover

The last woof and testament of Gizmo the Wonder Dog!

George knows that Gizmo is getting old - after all, he's been around since before George was born and what's that in dog years? - so he writes Gizmo a bucket list. As the pair work their way down the list they have lots of adventures and lots of laughs. This heartfelt, yet hilarious, book is sure to be a hit with readers.Gizmo has been my best friend since the day I was born - he's always been around. But now they're telling me he might not always be around which completely sucks. I'm determined that me and Gizmo will have lots more fun and adventures before he goes - I mean, he loves parties, deserves pampering, and needs a break by the seaside. And as for that old saying about how you can't teach an old dog new tricks - it's true, you really can't! Gizmo's bucket list is up and running - unlike Gizmo who is totally lazy and demanding to be carried . . . All the laugh-out-loud humour you'd expect from a Ben Davis book but with added heart and poignancy . . . and a four-legged character you'll fall in love with!

Praise for My Embarrassing Dad's Gone Viral: Books that try to harness the internet on the page are often a little stilted. Davis, by contrast, pulls off a modern tale of YouTube-ing. * The Observer *
