What people think about Home Alone Harry

“I read this to my 4 year old, Lily-May and the dog, Alfie, who joins us every evening for story time. This was a fun book to read together. At just 4 years old Lily-May understood why Harry was seen as being ‘naughty’”

Happy L-M

“This is such an intriguing concept. A children’s book that is so much more than just a picture book, instead it teaches young children the basics of something called ‘metacognition’ or ‘thinking about thinking’”

Emma R

“I like the positive ethos of this story, which reinforces the idea, that things are not always perfect the first time. Sometimes, you have to work at understanding how someone thinks before you can live or work together in harmony.”

Jane H

“Written by experts, Home Alone Harry is the perfect book to help young children understand both the HOW and WHY of dog training. I absolutely love it! If you have young children and are welcoming a dog into your house, you need this book.”
