The Peachey family’s loyal dog steps up to save the day once more in the fourth instalment of this acclaimed, witty middle-grade series.

Pa has just landed a new job, and it’s put an unusual spring in his step. But a new job means a new house in a new part of town, and now the Peacheys are getting ready to move. Amidst the chaos, nobody seems to notice that Betty is struggling with this big change. Nobody, that is, except McTavish. Will the canny family dog be able to put a smile back on Betty’s face? The fourth instalment of this critically acclaimed series brings a touching and witty take to one of life’s most common anxieties.

It was when a girl moved to a different house and she started a new school. She was so nervous that she might not be happy. But later on she kept on getting happier and happier. It was the best school day ever.

I loved this book especially when McTavish was running around and the whole school was chasing him. And I like that , that part helped Bettie make a lot of friends. Also finding out that Bettie new someone that was in her class that she saw and talked a bit too at the park. I didn’t like the part where there dad Pa Peachey was always in a bad mood like before in the book but not really happy

McTavish is a rescue dog that rescued the Peachey family loads of times. McTavish is my favourite because he was the only one who noticed Betty was sad about moving house, not even her sister or brother or parents. I would recommend this book to everyone, if I have to recommend this book to only one person I know it would be my classmate.

A good book but a bit too young for me.

I think that this book is a good book because it was about Mc Tavish and the peache's moving their house. The house was mainly white with a blue front door. There is a nice apple tree in the garden as well. They have unloaded all the boxes in the new house and unpacked kitchen stuff. They also noticed that the neigherboud is similar to the old one. They met a girl Jasmin and her dog Jess. My fav character is McTavish because he ran so fast that nobody could catch until Mr Scrubbins the school caretaker jump from behind and catch him. I would recommend it to people who are in a process of moving house

I loved this short novella about a clever dog called McTavish. My favourite characters were Betty and Ava.
