  a lovely read that would appeal to all age groups and a book that you can happily read over and over. Very sad but also true to life - thoroughly enjoyed

• Mike Austin

  As an animal lover myself, it is clear that at the heart of this book, the author has inserted his love and experience of dogs. The way Lady is written can only be done so by someone who is writing from their personal experience with dogs of their own, which I love. It’s a heartfelt, wonderful story that will appeal to all ages. I cannot wait for future publications by this Christopher Hayes-Brown.

• Heart warming, fantastic read for all

  I love animals, and one of my favourite dogs are German Shepherds the bond between a dog and its owner is inseparable. Chris has really captured this in this heart tugging story. It even made me shed a tear at the end. This book was also read by my 9yr old and she loved it so much she asked for the next book. Both of us can't wait for the next books.

  Initially I was apprehensive about reading this book as it's not the genre I would normally select. It was my daughter that recommended I should give it a go as we both share an interest in history and she had read and loved it.
  
  Well I can tell you that I virtually couldn't put the book down from the moment I started it. I normally only read just before going to bed but I found myself stealing moments during the weekend to read it. I loved they way the characters are so believable that they almost leaped from the page. The author really puts you back in rural pre war Yorkshire. You can really feel remarkable bond between David and Lady during the highs and lows (have some handkerchiefs at the ready) of their journey in this wonderful heartfelt story.
  
  I would recommend this book to anyone animal lover or not as it's simply just a damn good read.

• Marc Ogier

  Lady is a great compact read for all ages. Chris provides a short moment of escapism and takes you back to a time when young men were called up to fight for their country in the Second World War. He introduces a unique character dimension by describing the relationship of a man and his dog and how we should see all animals as equal amongst us. This book is ideal to read on a journey or when you have a few moments spare at the beginning or end of the day, it was very enjoyable!

  Fantastic book, great insight into the bond between man and dog and also the harsh realities of war where not only human lives were lost. Would recommend this book to all age groups but get the tissues ready!! Christopher Hayes-Brown has another fantastic book Secret island which I am half way through and loving it!!!

  This book paints a lovely picture of the bond between people and dogs. It's clear the author has a passion for animals in general and has huge respect for those who fought for their country, which is a strong and necessary message for these times.
