What is The Way Home about?

A man and his dog move from place to place, carrying their belongings and searching for somewhere safe to sleep. Without a door to shut or a fire to warm them, each day brings new difficulties. Still, they stay together and hold on to their dream of finding a home. Along the way, the kindness and support of people in their community begin to make a difference. This gentle, hopeful story introduces young readers to homelessness, dignity and the courage it takes to keep going.
