A story inspired by Skye
Tails of Courage was inspired by Doreen’s much-loved golden retriever, Skye, whose personality and adventurous spirit helped bring the story to life.
In the story, golden retriever Skye begins her first year at the top-secret Cambridge Puppy Academy, hidden within the University of Cambridge. When a royal student vanishes, Skye joins Dezzy, Coyra and Paddy to form the Doggy Detectives and follow the clues.
Filled with mystery, mischief and courage, this first Cambridge Doggy Detectives adventure is for readers aged seven and over.
