Book Synopsis

A big-hearted rhyming tale about a very special, very brave dog, written by the brilliant Julia Donaldson and stunningly illustrated by the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, creators of Gozzle and the Number One bestselling The Detective Dog. After their breakfast and a swim in the sea, Dot and her owner Rose jump on the bus to the hospital. Dot loves visiting the children of Wallaby Ward and they're always pleased to see her too; from a crying baby to a bored teenager - a pat, a stroke and a cuddle with Dot cheers everyone up. But the work of the hospital dog doesn't stop there and when one of her patients is in trouble, it's up to Dot to save the day! Written by Julia Donaldson, author of The Gruffalo, and illustrated by the multi-talented illustrator and print-maker Sara Ogilvie, The Hospital Dog is fantastic rhyming story about friendship and bravery and was the winner of the Indie Book Awards 2021. Look out for more animal adventures by Julia Donaldson and Sara Ogilvie: Gozzle and The Detective Dog.
