Overview

Back Cover

Little h Dog is no ordinary dog and Big H is no ordinary owner. What will Big H do to help his little pup's poorly muscles? Where does the Super Vet fit in? And will Little h Dog ever get to chase a ball in the park again?

Meet 'Big H' and 'Little h Dog' in this heartwarming children's story, based on the real life endeavours of a father to save his son from the cruel muscle wasting disease 'Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy'.

The story provides a wonderful opportunity to spark conversations around disability/accessibility/inclusiveness, and that rather than being something to be dreaded, a wheelchair can open up a world of opportunity and adventure for children with a disability.

In real life, 'Little h Dog' is a 14 year old boy called Harrison, but in this story, Harrison is a dog, because research by the charity Harrison's Fund has shown that dogs get more 'click-throughs'!

The Author & Illustrator Team

Written by debut children's author Victoria Smith (Harrison's Aunty Vix!), 'Big H and Little h Dog' includes 32 pages of delightful hand-drawn, hand-water coloured all-original illustrations by the debut book illustrator 'Sketchy La Rue'; his humourous style and characterisation oozes from every page. More children's books from this dynamic duo are in the making! :-)

For Charity

100% of profit from book sales will be donated to Harrison's Fund, a charity on a mission to get as much money as possible into the hands of the world's best researchers, who are working hard to find a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
