A friend in need causes an anxious pup to confront his fear of change in this thoughtful and encouraging tale. Charlie follows the same routine every day: he hops out of bed in the morning, walks the same route to the market, and lines up his stuffed animals just so in the evening. If anything is slightly different, Charlie worries that something bad might happen. But when friends call one morning asking for Charlie’s help, he forgets to follow his usual routine. Will something bad happen, as Charlie fears? Or will he learn that change can be good? In this touching story by Terry Milne, readers will fall in love with the nervous little dog named Charlie and his ability to overcome his fear of change.

Gordon Morris wrote this book originally as a kind of diary for himself. It is an account of the antics of his English springer spaniel, mainly on their walks together on Hayling Beach, near Portsmouth. It is also a cautionary tale of the hectic nature of the breed, and the enormous commitment it is to look after such an intelligent, energetic, bloody-minded type of dog. Musing with Charlie is also about Gordon’s memories and thoughts of his life, the universe and everything (to quote a phrase) as they walked together. If after reading this book you see old boys walking their dogs deep in thought, or having a discussion with their peers on a bench, you may have an insight into Gordon’s generation’s lives and experiences, and you will have had a laugh or two at Gordon’s expense - and Charlie’s antics!

One cold February night, a terrified feral dog was carried into the author’s home, and began a very different life to everything he had previously known. This is the true story of the extraordinary bond that developed between Lisa and Charlie, a one-eyed Romanian feral dog, who had lived wild until he was captured and sent to the UK to be homed. Unused to the presence of people, Charlie had no coping skills other than to follow his instincts. Although Lisa had worked with many deeply troubled dogs, the challenges posed by Charlie’s background were unique. Wild, fearful and highly reactive, more wolf than dog, Charlie needed a great deal of understanding, patience and compassion in order to help him adjust to his new life. Despite numerous obstacles and setbacks, the developing relationship between Charlie and Lisa, and Lisa’s daughter, Amber, and resident dog, Skye, transformed all of their lives. Charlie’s gradual shift from fearful feral to happy, affectionate, fun-loving family dog is touching and heart-warming, and clearly demonstrates the transformative power of love and kindness.

Charlie Wallis has everything a girl could wish for. A loving boyfriend, a nice flat and a fantastic job as a journalist for London Core. Trouble is, Charlie's boyfriend isn't at all 'loving', her job title really reads 'office assistant' and her flat, at the top of a high-rise, isn't that nice either. Her new boss, Ben, is a huge bear of a man. A gentle giant, with chocolate brown eyes that hold a secret. While London Core investigates the disappearances of local prostitutes, Charlie, wants in on the action, deciding that dressing as a hooker and walking the streets is good research. Bumping into Ben was the last thing she expected.
