Juno, the Big Brown Dog, is worried because her sister Juniper is unwell and must travel to London to visit a specialist vet who, hopefully, can make her better. Whilst on this trip, Juno learns that not only dogs get ill, but our environment can become unhealthy. This can cause serious harm to dogs, humans, other animals and their habitats. She also discovers that there are various measures we can take to reverse some of this damage. This beautifully illustrated story of Juno’s adventures in London will help children understand the reality and urgency of The Climate Crisis.
