**'Their anatomy – and more so, their spirit – hears many things, but at its centre it listens for you. It almost makes up for everything. The deaths, the attacks, the cover-ups. Only a fool would do it again . . .'*This is the story of three troublesome rescue dogs – and how even the most incorrigible of animals can become family. Poignant, funny and disarmingly honest, Three Wild Dogs (and the truth)is a dog lover’s memoir from one of the world’s most beloved storytellers: bestselling author of The Book Thief *, Marcus Zusak.

What happens when the Zusaks open their family home to three big, wild, pound-hardened dogs – Reuben, a wolf at your door with a hacksaw; Archer, blond, beautiful, deadly; and the rancorously smiling Frosty, who walks like a rolling thunderstorm?

The answer can only be chaos: there are street fights, public shamings, property trashing, bodily injuries, stomach pumping, purest comedy and carnage that needs to be seen to be believed . . . not to mention the odd police visit at some ungodly hour.

Through shortcomings and failure, willpower and an explosion of love, Reuben, Archer and Frosty become family. * Three Wild Dogs (and the truth)* is a love letter to the animals who bring hilarity and adventure straight to our doors, and into our lives.
