Part of the First Reading series, this title is aimed at children who are beginning to read. It allows children to build their burgeoning reading skills and is accompanied by illustrations.

In Spain, it is estimated that up to 100,000 hunting dogs are abandoned at the end of the hare coursing season every year. This book documents those dogs that have been rescued and sets them against the locations in Spain where they are typically abandoned: the sides of roads, the ravines and the empty car parks. Shot in a style that references the tone and mood of Velzquez, who painted at a time when these dogs were treated with great respect, Martin Usborne's photographs show both the classical beauty of the animals and the ugliness of their modern situation.

Martin Usborne's photo series consists of over forty-five images of dogs gazing silently through car windows, often in the dead of night. The images, which are staged and highly cinematic, evoke a mood of loneliness and longing. They are not so much portraits of dogs as studies in on one level referring to the separation between humans and (other) animals but on another the separation within ourselves, between our everyday selves and the rawer (more animal) parts that we keep locked away. The photographs draw on the work of Edward Hopper and Gregory Crewdson.
