From the dust jacket blurb:
"The bag wasn't just drifting gently along, it was turning of its own accord. There was something inside it, squeaking and squealing in terror. Patrick didn't think about it. He shrugged off his school bag and leaped into the canal."
For Best Mate, being rescued from drowning as a young puppy is only the start of his adventures. From unwanted burden to favourite companion, and from pet to champion race dog, this remarkable greyhound proves that it's not just cats who have more than one life. Cast aside, kidnapped, adopted or living rough on the streets, Best Mate can always find a way to survive. But will he ever find a real home?
International bestselling author Michael Morpurgo has written a moving, compulsively readable story of an innocent animal and the people - both good and bad, both young and old - who shape the course of his life.
