'The old familiar world had gone. Out there in
the cold and gusting dark, something new and unknown was waiting...'
Scamp lives at a pet care centre. He has friends, food
and a warm bed. But one terrible night - the Night of the Great
Growl - his world changes for ever.
The people have vanished and all that's left outside are the Things:
vicious, starving beasts that roam the ruined city. Driven
into the wilds - with Chandelier the cat, Punzel the rabbit, Patticake
the dachshund, Falstaff the parrot and hamsters Nudge and
Wink - Scamp sets off in search of safety.
On their epic journey, Scamp must discover his own wildness if
he's to lead the pets to the one thing they so desperately need
- a new home.
A moving, beautifully written survival quest story perfect for
fans of I AM REBEL.
Set to win the hearts of children the world over.
With irresistible full-page illustrations.
