The beloved boy-meets-dog story by legendary adventurer, Farley Mowat. The man who became famous for a memoir about living with Arctic wolves, Never Cry Wolf, grew up on the Canadian prairie in Saskatoon. His life was changed when his mother paid four cents for a black and white mongrel who Farley quickly named "Mutt."
Mutt displayed great skills at hunting and retrieving -- once going so far as to retrieve a plucked and trussed ruffed grouse from the grocer. But Mutt truly loved riding passenger in an open car wearing goggles and climbing both trees and ladders -- the perfect companion for a child with a love for misadventures.
Originally published for young people, this is a memoir that will delight dog lovers of all ages.
