Nip the terrrier and his friend Suky the saluki escape from the nasty burglars they belong to and set out to find a new home. They spend some time with a circus, where Nip becomes Dingo the Dog Man's star turn, and they make friends with Jezzaralda the orang utan. After an interlude in the woods where they meet a dancing deer, and some adventures on a canal boat and at a car boot sale, Nip and his friend journey to the seaside and finally find the home they long for. Told with sunny charm in Nip's own innocent voice, this a fast-paced adventure story that is both thought-provoking and immensely engaging.
