Perfect for fans of Michael Morpurgo's War Horse and Lauren St John. Buster is a lively Jack Russell Tiger is a feisty white and ginger tom Rose is a faithful Collie Robert and Lucy Edwards love their pets more than anything; but the threat of the Second World War forces them to flee to Devon - leaving their animals behind.

Buster, Tiger and Rose make a daring escape but with danger at every turn, can the trio make it across the country as it prepares for battle - and cheat death for the second time?
