Double Trouble
Double Trouble, a large, brown, hairy, two-tailed loveable but irrepressible dog had been abandoned at a pet shop. He was discovered by two children, Emily, and Darcy, who took him home, to their mother’s dismay. DT, who loved everyone and everything, caused chaos wherever he went. With only the best of intentions, he wanted to be involved in every situation, but although he was adored by all children, he was not always accepted by adults. Underneath that hairy coat was a heart of gold which was invisible to most grown-ups. But, in the end, DT always managed to win over even the hardest of hearts because, just as he loved everyone, he wanted to be loved by others.

Darling Untold
Lovely Jan,
With her radio, knee-high socks, and curls.
In some ways she was different to other lovely girls.
She had two wonky eyes that made things hard to see.

Not one little bit,
It made her ears better at listening to trumpets...
