"The story of three animals who walked home. There was Luath, a young and gentle Labrador, with a red-gold coat and a noble head. There was Tao, the hunter, a sleek wheat-coloured Siamese cat. There was Bodger, the old half-blind tough Bull Terrier, with a strong sense of humour. Three animals who walked and ran, and fought and struggled together; who escaped death at almost every step; and who finally came home as though they could never again be parted from the dream of their incredible journey."
Das Buch war auch die Vorlage für einen bekannten Walt-Disney-Film.
