Children's & Educational; Animal stories (Children's&YA)

Seven funny episodic tales about Danielle and her nervous whippet, Chuck

Chuck is a whippet.

A very nervous whippet, who's scared of absolutely everything- paper bags, pigeons, supermarket trolleys, cats (even the little fluffy ones). Some people say Chuck's a wimpet, not a whippet, and Mum keeps pretending she's going to give Chuck away, but Danielle loves her scaredy-cat whippet and knows that there's more to Chuck than meets the eye...

Seven funny, charming and totally whippet-friendly stories from Peter Dickinson, the winner of several major awards for his books for young readers - and the owner of three whippets!
