Isabel Allende is a literary living legend and phenomenon. With 80 million books sold, she's the most-read author in the Spanish language throughout the world, and a blockbuster international bestseller of adult novels. A novelist, feminist and philanthropist, Isabel won worldwide acclaim in 1982 with the publication of her first novel, The House of the Spirits. Her work has been translated into more than 40 languages, received the PEN Center Lifetime Achievement Award and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. She lives in California. IsabelAllende.com.Sandy Rodriguez is a self-taught artist and illustrator. She grew up in Mexico surrounded by lots of family. (She has more than 30 cousins!) Inspired by everyday moments, Sandy loves creating playful characters with quirky personalities. Her favourite medium is watercolour and ink but she also experiments with coloured paper, gouache and some digital magic. Sandy lives in London with her husband and two fantastic daughters.

In this howlarious sequel to celebrated novelist Allende’s picture book Perla the Mighty Dog (2024), a superheroic pup comes to the rescue again. . . Rodríguez’s bright watercolor-and-ink illustrations once more complement this narrative’s cheerful disposition perfectly… Another woof-worthy adventure.
