| General Notes | Originally published as Runt by Allen & Unwin, Australia, in 2022. |
| Summary | "Annie Shearer lives in the country town of Upson Downs with her best friend, an adopted stray dog called Runt. The two share a very special bond. After years evading capture, Runt is remarkably fast and agile, perfect for herding runaway sheep. But when a greedy local landowner puts her family's home at risk, Annie directs Runt's extraordinary talents toward a different pursuit-winning the Agility Course Grand Championship at the lucrative Krumpets Dog Show in London."-- |
