The ideal gift for anyone who has ever been owned by a dog.
When Beazle the Dalmatian first entered Trevor Grove's North London household, he was just "a scrap of spotty fur". Now he runs the place. Every day, rain or shine, he insists on taking Trevor for a walk on Hampstead Heath. While Beazle finds disgusting things to do and eat, his so-called master tags along behind, musing on the peculiar ways of dogs and their owners.
This little book, charmingly illustrated by Posy Simmonds, is the result of those musings. As dog and man tramp the footpaths, seasons change, rabbits scarper, squirrels flee and foxes break cover. The Heath is also rich in human fauna. Sometimes Trevor spots celebrities. Beazle spots celebrity's sandwiches. Once he nearly became a celebrity himself by sneaking onto the set of 'The Hundred And One Dalmatians' to steal the camera crew's buns.
