Jade can’t help but fall in love with Bear, an adorable Bernese mountain dog puppy she meets in the park after school. Bear is large and lively and belongs to a new family in the neighborhood. Bear’s owners are always on the go and are grateful when Jade offers to walk Bear. But as she spends more time with him, she begins to worry that they aren’t able to give him the attention and exercise he needs. How can she help Bear when he isn’t her dog to help?
Holly Webb started out as a children's book editor and wrote her first series for the publisher she worked for. She has been writing ever since, with over one hundred books to her name. Holly lives in Berkshire, with her husband and three children. Holly's pet cats are always nosing around when she is trying to type on her laptop.
