Meet Jemima, a lovable Labrador with a very important job!

While she loves playing with her favourite yellow bone and getting lots of cuddles, Jemima is also a fully trained guide dog who helps her handler navigate the world. Through playful adventures and heartwarming moments, discover how Jem balances her fun-loving nature with the focused dedication needed to be a guide dog extraordinaire.

Written by blind disability activist and guide dog user Olivia Muscat, with illustrations by award-winning artist Allison Colpoys, this charming picture book shares an insider's view of the special bond between guide dog and handler. Includes an audio version narrated by the author herself.
