Misty's Story

Ruth is very sad when her big brother Ben goes away to university. He always made time to build assault courses in the back garden and do other outdoor activities with Ruth, who is a real tomboy and has no interest in girlie games like playing with dolls. To cheer her up, Ruth's parents organize a surprise—her very own beagle puppy, Misty—from Battersea Dogs Home! Misty had a reputation at the Home for being an extremely active little dog, too boisterous and energetic for the workers to keep up with! But Misty and Ruth are perfectly matched—and decide to enter the local fair's Best in Show competition. But training doesn't quite go according to plan, and when Mom's flower beds are destroyed and the next door neighbor's window smashed, the pair are banned from entering! Will Ruth manage to change Mom's mind before it's too late? And have her and Misty got the skills to take gold?
