Description

Greyfriars Bobby is a deeply moving story inspired by true events. In this beautifully bound edition, Auld Jock's life takes a poignant turn when he moves to Edinburgh in search of work. Despite facing poverty and loneliness, his loyal companion, a plucky Skye terrier named Bobby, remains steadfast. Bobby's devotion to Auld Jock is remarkable, and their bond becomes a source of comfort in the face of hardship. When the farmer who dismissed Jock tries to take the dog back, Bobby escapes and finds his way back to town, leading him to stay by Auld Jock's side for many years. This edition features an introduction by Mary Paulson-Ellis, adding context and depth to this heartwarming tale of friendship and loyalty.
