I really liked this book. It reminded me of the Thai footballers who were lost in the caves too.

This book is the first book of the set and it is very adventurous. The other books follow on to this, as Rascal (the dog) had fallen and his owener thought he was... Read this book for more information.

This is a very interesting book. Rascal goes on holiday with his owner Joel and he gets lost in the caves. Joel thinks Rascal has died because they get separated and he cannot find him. Joel and his family set off home and Rascal sees them go but cannot catch up with them. This is the story of how Rascal sets off on a long journey to get home to Joel.
