Street Dogs Lisa Worth

Rafiq is a sweet, scruffy street dog, living in a sleepy Middle Eastern town.

He doesn't like to complain or seem ungrateful, but with only one eye that works, what use is he to his pack?




Halimah is smart and can get them out of any sticky situation, and as for Buster, wow he's brave! Imshee is quicker than a lizard and Spike leaps like an antelope, but Rafiq? What can he do?




Sometimes he just wants to lay on his back on the beach and soak up the sunshine, to forget how useless his friends make him feel. Even this is spoiled by an angry, screeching sea bird who terrifies him, and he wonders if he should just run away altogether.




But he can't leave his pack - he'd be far too lonely - and what he doesn't know is that soon, they're going to need him more than ever.




Maybe it wasn't his street dog pals that made him feel useless after all. Maybe he just wasn't being kind to himself.
