Dog Ears

Dog Ears by Anne Booth
 
Anna has a lot on her plate — a baby brother who needs constant care, a mum who’s overwhelmed, and a dad working far away. When school excitement over a popstar talent contest bubbles up, Anna smiles along, but inside she’s struggling to cope.
 
The one place she can be completely honest is with her dog, Sam, who listens without judgement. Tender, thoughtful and deeply relatable, this gentle middle-grade novel explores friendship, worry, and what happens when a child needs support too.
