The Audio Book – NEW

Curl up under a Tumbleroot and listen to the aged, smooth voice of Irish story-teller Steve McCurdy. Pour your favourite drop and snug down a while and hear a kids’ tale written for grown-ups.

Beautifully embellished with all original songs and music. This exciting Audiobook version of the novel includes a taster of over 20 original  Lonely Dog songs.

This is the fascinating tale of ‘Lonely Dog’ – an orphaned hound growing up in Alveridgea, where cats and dogs live alongside each other, but on quiet different sides of the tracks.
This is a family fable of finding purpose amidst social division. It is highly relevant to today’s world.
