      Grover and Squeak's Farm Adventure - Claire Garth

      Adventures:

      CHAPTER 1

      As Grover McBane jumped into the car, he could barely contain his excitement. In the boot there were suitcases, a huge container of dog biscuits, a ball, his bed, three of his favourite toys and a bag of treats. He was going on a ROAD TRIP!

      Grover’s humans, Annie and David, often went away on the weekends. Much to his delight, Grover was usually allowed to go with them. It was the best way to relax after working hard at the animal shelter with Annie. Grover had been to the beach, and high up into the mountains. There were always lots of new smells and new things to see.

      Grover had always lived in the city, even when he was with the horrible Man with Big Boots. Now that he was with Annie and David at Cavendish Lane, he NEVER wanted to live anywhere else. He loved being a city dog and being around so many people and cars and cafés and parks. But he also loved running in open fields, sniffing the country air, and rolling around in the long grass. Plus, there were so many other animals to sniff! Grover had met rabbits, ducks, pigs, cows and many, many birds. The cows scared him a little bit. They were so big! But on the whole, he loved a good adventure away from the city – as long as he could sleep on a comfy bed inside at night, of course.

      Grover pressed his wet nose against the car window. He couldn’t wait for Annie and David to finally finish packing and get in the car.

      C’mon, you guys, how much stuff do we really need? Grover wondered. What’s taking so long? All the essentials were already in the boot – ball, treats, toys. What else was there?

      ‘I assume you’re leaving Cavendish Lane for good, Dog?’ came a familiar voice from outside the car.

      It was the mean cat from next door, Mr Tibbles. Grover was certain by now that Mr Tibbles was always looking for ways to annoy him!

      ‘No, I’m not, but you’ll be pleased to hear that we’re going on a holiday, Mr Tibbles. Though you won’t be so pleased to hear that we’ll be back right after the weekend,’ Grover replied, grinning cheekily.

      ‘Oh, what a bother,’ Mr Tibbles jeered. ‘It would be so much better if you went on holiday FOREVER. Yes, much better indeed.’ He stroked his whiskers. ‘So, where are you off to this time, Dog? The beach again? I can’t wait for you to come back covered in sand and seaweed,’ Mr Tibbles scoffed. ‘I’ll be able to smell you from my house.’
