The Scruffy Puppy
Holly Webb, Sophy Williams
A brand new tale in the Animal Stories series from best-selling author Holly Webb, this story is about the true meaning of friendship – and how there’s the perfect pup out there for everyone!
Bella instantly falls in love with her scruffy puppy Sid when she sees him at the animal shelter. She gets her family to agree that he’s the perfect pet for them and she cannot wait to bring him home!
But one person is not too impressed with Sid – Bella’s friend Megan, who is getting her own pedigree pup. Megan is pretty snooty about Bella’s beloved mongrel pet, and she begins to wonder if she’s that good a friend after all. Bella decides to enter Sid into a dog show, so she can prove for once and for all that all dogs are brilliant, no matter where they come from!
The Scruffy Puppy is the 27th book in Holly Webb’s Animal Stories series, a must for animal loving girls and boys aged six to eight years.
Reviews
I liked the Scruffy Puppy because Bella and her family wanted a dog and the name was called Sid.

I liked that it was all about dogs (and sometimes cats) and I also liked it when they were friends and then they separated and then they were back together at the end.

i think people aged 6-10 would enjoy this book. Sid, who they got from a shelter, is a very cute, scruffy looking dog. But when Megan, bella's best friend, gets a pedigree puppy, what will happen?

I wish I could see Sid doing his amazing tricks

This book is all about how much a girl called Bella loves dogs and one day she gets one from a shelter. The most engaging part was when Sid (the dog) wins all three red rosettes and also when Megan's friend (Bella) saves her pet puppy (Coco) even after Megan made Bella upset and was rude about her dog.

I loved reading this book! It was all about a scruffy puppy and he got adopted by Bella. Then there was this girl called Lara at her school and she was really mean to Bella because Megan her best friend had got a pedigree dog called Coco and Lara was making fun of Sid because he was from a dog shelter and then Megan agreed with her.You will have to find out the rest of it by reading the book. I liked Sarah, Bella's new best friend. I would recommend this to my sister.
