Bobbie the Wonder Dog: A True Story

This is the amazing story of Bobbie, the Wonder Dog, a legend of 1920s America, who warmed the hearts of a nation. The Scotch collie mix was lost on a family trip from Silverton, Oregon, to Indiana, and he walked all the way home, a six-month and almost 2,800-mile journey, to return to the people he loved. Bobbie crossed the Rockies in the dead of winter and walked right down the main street of his hometown and into the restaurant operated by his family. The story of his journey tore across newspapers nationally, and his story is said to have inspired Lassie Come Home. His remarkable feat earned him regional and national headlines, magazines and books, and a place in the Ripley's Believe It or Not!How the idea became a book, as told in Publisher's Weekly
