description: Wells and Jeffers have made Eric Knight's 1938 classic accessable to younger readers by adapting it into picture book format. The story about the collie who travels a thousand miles through Scotland and England to be with the boy she loves has none of the saccharinity of the television series; rather, it is full of hardship, devotion, and courage. Poignant yet stirring, this is a perfect family read-aloud.
