Little Linda was three years old when she told Father Christmas a secret. 'What I want more than anything is to have a puppy of my own to love'.

But with every Christmas that went by, no puppy appeared. Linda grew into a busy working mum and wife, and her dreams of a puppy were pushed to the back of her mind. It wasn't until a special visitor one dark and cold Christmas Eve, that she began to remember the wish she had made sixty years earlier. . .

Full of charming and touching stories, and in the wake of A Streetcat Named Bob and Christmas at the Ragdoll Orphanage, comes an unforgettable true story about childhood, love, and how an animal can change anyone's life.
