What is Dog Watch about?

Emma adores animals, so she is thrilled when she gets to look after Lily, her neighbour’s dog, for the weekend. With her brother’s help, Emma expects plenty of fun, but caring for a lively dog is harder than she imagined. When Lily slips her lead and races away, Emma must stay calm and work out how to find her.
