Buttons The Runaway Puppy (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
“Who was that?” Sophie asked. “It was Mr Jenkins. He’s asked us all round for a cup of tea this afternoon.” Mum looked at Sophie, whose face had suddenly crumpled, and Tom and Michael, and said firmly, “I told him of course we would love to. It will be nice to see him.” Sophie stared at her fruit salad, and knew she couldn’t eat any more. “Please may I leave the table,” she muttered, getting up. She wasn’t sure she could be brave enough to go and see Buttons in her real home. Not when she kept imagining her back here. Her mum sighed and let Sophie go. She looked worriedly at their dad. “It’s going to be especially hard for Sophie to see Buttons. She hasn’t been in the garden when we’ve walked past, and I’ve been grateful. But I suppose it has to happen sooner or later.” Sophie trailed behind the others as they went round to Mr Jenkins’s house, walking as slowly as she could.
