Pudding

Nobody wants Pudding, the tubby pup and nobody wants Lucy, the lonely little girl. So they are sad - and then Pudding is bad, and chews up everything in sight. Both of them decide to run away into the woods - where they meet each other by chance. And Lucy likes Pudding and Pudding licks Lucy and so they play together, and stay together foreover. Very simple and very sweet. Pippa Goodhart is an ex Heffers Children's Bookseller and has had several novels and picture books published.
