This is a heart-warming story about a boy who wants to prove to his parents he is responsible enough to have a dog. This is a story of adventure, emotion and perseverance, and a must-have for all parents, teachers and children.

Sammy and Sunny - with love comes responsibility

Front cover of the Sammy and Sunny book.

“Sunny is a special part of our family, but he also needs rules to keep him safe. ‘I think it might be time for puppy pre-school,’ said Mum. Dad agreed. ‘He needs a trainer. Someone to help him become the best pup on the block.’ Sammy steps up for the challenge but soon learns that with love…comes responsibility”.

Sammy and Sunny embark on another adventure. Sammy needs to learn how to train Sunny to be a well-behaved dog. In order to do this he needs to go to puppy pre-school.
