'Philippa Pearce - one of the finest children's writers of the 20th
century' - Guardian In A DOG SO SMALL young Ben Blewitt is
desperate for a dog. He's picked out the biggest and best dogs from
the books in the library - and he just knows he's going to get one
for his birthday. Ben is excited when the big day arrives, but he
receives a picture of a dog instead of a real one! But the
imagination can be a powerful thing, and when Ben puts his to work,
his adventures really begin! Philippa Pearce grew up in a millhouse
near Cambridge and read English and history at Girton College. She
was a scriptwriter-producer for the BBC, a children's book editor
and reviewer, a lecturer, a storyteller and freelance writer for
radio and newspapers as well as writing some of the best-loved
books of the 20th century. She won a Carnegie Medal for TOM'S
MIDNIGHT GARDEN and a Whitbread Prize for THE BATTLE OF BUBBLE AND
SQUEAK also published by Puffin Books. She died in December, 2006.
