A humorous short story from the collection, BEYOND THE STARS, written by an internationally bestselling author.
Abigail
Crumb is forever making mistakes at the veterinary surgery where she
works after school, and now she’s on her final warning. So when she
loses – and then finds again – one of the puppies in her care, she
doesn’t tell her boss; she’s saving up for a houdah for her elephant,
after all, and knows she has to hide the puppy if she wants to keep her
job. But how will she keep her secret?
After several chance
encounters with Henry Brocket – a forlorn little boy who’s always
dressed as a pilot and is obsessed with Biggles – and discovering why
he’s so sad, Abigail suddenly realises what she must do.
