"Her voice sounded kind and she gave me a lot of fuss." When Jenny enters her new home, she has no idea what to expect, but she quickly realises that she has come to loving people. In fact, Jenny is destined for a life of total devotion to her "mum". First, Mum patiently trains her to perform the usual dog commands like "sit" and "fetch". But as time goes by and Mum's condition worsens, Jenny has to understand her new needs and to adapt to them. Jenny develops a special sense - she knows how Mum is feeling and she knows how to look after her. In return, Mum bestows on Jenny the love that she deserves, and cares for her with the same devotion. They become soulmates, a source of comfort for each other. On the occasions when Mum goes into hospital, they are both upset by the separation, but, oh, the joy when they are back together again and can share their tea and biscuits once more. This remarkable story, written from a dog's point of view, is both moving and inspiring, especially to anyone who understands a dog's capacity for communicating with humans in a way that even other humans cannot do.
Autorenporträt
Chris Harrison is a writer, producer, and author of the Crooked Tales series. Born in North London, he studied Film at Middlesex University to satisfy his deep-rooted fascination with the art of storytelling. Whilst there, he discovered analysing films all day gave him the perfect opportunity to delve deeper into decades of literary and cinematic horror, a passion since early childhood. Having previously written for film and education, Chris is now focused on fulfilling a lifelong dream and is busy creating immersive worlds full of spine-tingling terror for a young adult audience. Fusing together classic themes of the supernatural and macabre with more contemporary urban mythology, he is on a mission to re-imagine our deepest and darkest fears for a new generation of horror fans. Now based on the south coast of England, when he's not writing Chris can often be found on the basketball court coaching young people or posting spooky artwork on Instagram.
