Pup Idol: Wordtamer Quick Words series Jack and Emily spot a stray puppy at a funfair. Jack can't keep the puppy. He lives at a foster home where pets are banned and anyway he's more into snakes and rats than cuddly pups. Emily can't keep it either, because she's off on holiday for the summer. But there are bad people about - people who think it's fun to hurt animals - and Jack has to do something. But maybe the 'something' that Jack does will only put the puppy in more danger ... this urban adventure novel is part of the Wordtamer Press 'Quick Words' series aimed at readers aged 8-14 who enjoy shorter length but fast paced cliff hanger story lines.
