 THE ADVENTURES OF JAKE

Written by Annette Butterworth with illustrations by Nick Butterworth

Four stories about Jake, the best dog in the world, written with zest and humour, and illustrated by one of the biggest names in children's books!

Annette Butterworth and husband Nick Butterworth have always kept dogs, and the Jake stories are inspired by two dogs in particular: Jake and Sheppy. Nick is a best-selling author worldwide for his Percy the Park Keeper stories, plus The Whisperer, QPootle5 and Tiger. Annette's stories were first published by Hodder Children's Books in the 1990s when Jake the Good Bad Dog was shortlisted for the Red House Children's Book Award.

In the new Happy Cat editions of these favourite stories the illustrations will be in glorious full colour for the first time.
