The classic dog story is now a beautifully illustrated picture book, perfect for reading aloud.
Susan Hill is the author of many books for children,
including several My Readers and her acclaimed novel Whistle in the
Dark. She lives in Portland, OR.
Olga and Aleksey Ivanov have illustrated more than seventy
books for children, including Mountain Dog by Margarita Engle and
the My Readers about Harry Cat and Tucker Mouse.
"A greatly simplified, attractively illustrated version for younger children... The simplified plot skillfully retains the drama of the dog's bravery and devotion... Large-format watercolor illustrations bring the Yorkshire village and countryside to life, with particularly appealing depictions of bright-eyed Lassie. A helpful map of England and Scotland on the book's first page shows the journey that Lassie takes from northern Scotland back home to Yorkshire. An irresistible treat for dog lovers." --Kirkus Reviews
