What a sweet story! Long-distance runner Dion Leonard was running a multi-day race in the Gobi Desert when a little dog came out of nowhere and started running with him. Dion couldn't believe the stamina of the little dog and how well she took to him. He decided to keep her and name her Gobi. But, getting Gobi out of China and back to his home in Scotland was not going to be easy. Maneuvering international policies and laws were something Dion had never done before and he wasn't sure where to begin. Luckily, his story of running with Gobi went viral and people from all over the world started to send money to his fundraising campaign to get Gobi home with him. This story is the Young Readers' Edition and is told quite simply where kids can understand it. In parts I thought it may be too simple and a little cheesy, but overall, I liked it.
