Synopsis
Gizmo has been my best friend since the day I was born - he's always been around. But now they're telling me he might not always be around which completely sucks.I'm determined that me and Gizmo will have lots more fun and adventures before he goes - I mean, he loves parties, deserves pampering, and needs a break by the seaside. And as for that old saying about how you can't teach an old dog new tricks - it's true, you really can't!Gizmo's bucket list is up and running - unlike Gizmo who is totally lazy and demanding to be carried . . .All the laugh-out-loud humour you'd expect from a Ben Davis book but with added heart and poignancy . . . and a four-legged character you'll fall in love with!
