When Patrick saves a litter of greyhound puppies from the canal, he begs his parents to let him keep one. They become best friends, until Best Mate is kidnapped by a greyhound trainer and begins a new life as a champion racer. Ages: 8-10yrs. 'From the first sentence of a Michael Morpurgo book, you know you are in the hands of a natural storyteller.' Guardian
