About this ebook

From W. Bruce Cameron, the author of the New York Times and USA Today bestselling novel A Dog's Purpose, which is now a major motion picture!

Bailey's Story is a heartwarming illustrated novel adapted for young readers from the beloved and New York Times bestselling A Dog's Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron.

Every dog has work to do. Every dog has a purpose.

When Bailey meets eight-year-old Ethan, he quickly figures out his purpose: to play with the boy, to explore the Farm during summers with the boy, and to tidy the boy's dishes by licking them clean (only when Mom isn't watching). But Bailey soon learns that life isn't always so simple--that sometimes bad things happen--and that there can be no greater purpose than to protect the boy he loves.

Bailey's Story is a moving tale about a dog and his boy for young animal lovers by W. Bruce Cameron, bestselling author of the acclaimed novel A Dog's Purpose. Adorable black-and-white illustrations by Richard Cowdrey bring Bailey and his world to life. A discussion and activity guide at the end of the book will help promote family and classroom discussions about Bailey's Story and the insights it provides about humankind's best friends.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Ratings and reviews

This is such a good book! W. Bruce Cameron shows the love of a boy and his dog. As Ethan gets older, Bailey finds that life changes and that it is his job to protect Ethan. Personally, I would recommend this book to ages 11+ due to certain understanding throughout the book. Bailey's Story is definitely for dog lovers.

This book was my first book that I have read by W. Bruce Calmeron. And ever since I have loved reading. Now I have read the total of six W. Bruce Calmeron books so far. Thanks to this book my perspective of reading has changed.

I loved this book! So sweet! Bailey is adorable and has a great imagination. He loves his boy and will always protect him.
