What is The Hundred-mile-an-hour Dog about?
Trevor's mum offers him £30 to walk their dog, Streaker, every day during the holidays. But Streaker isn't your average pet—she's a whirlwind on four legs! With the help of his best friend, Tina, Trevor embarks on a hilarious mission to train her. If he fails, he risks losing a bet to the dreadful Charlie Smugg, leading to a very unpleasant frogspawn-related consequence.
