Dave loves Dogger. One day, Dave loses Dogger. All the family help to look for him. He is discovered the next day, for sale on a toy stall at the summer fair. Dave doesn't have enough money to buy him back and so runs to find Mum and Dad. In the meantime, a little girl buys Dogger. Find out how Dave is reunited with his favourite toy through an act of kindness by his sister. A book described by the author as 'quintessentially English'.
