In the hospital garden, a great friendship grew,
Between a stray woolly dog and a boy feeling blue.
Alfie just had heart surgery, his chest was feeling sore,
When a little fluffy dog came and offered him a paw.
What happens between the boy and this fleecy pup,
When it's time for his fur to have a tidy up?
Echo is a sweet and charming story about the importance of friendship, capturing the bond between a boy and a dog with an inspiring message to wear your scars with pride.
This Echo book is dedicated to the children, families, and communities affected by congenital heart disease (CHD), and to HeartKids, the only national not-for-profit organisation solely focused on supporting and advocating for all people impacted by childhood heart disease - one of the largest causes of infant death in Australia.
All proceeds from every book sold, go directly to the charity HeartKids Australia.
