Good Dog Mctavish - Author Meg Rosoff

When Mum gives up on the family, it’s McTavish the rescue dog who steps in to save the day.

The Peachey family is falling apart. The kids are always late for school, dirty laundry piles up, and dinner? Forget it. Why? Because Mum has officially resigned and swapped parenting for yoga and tree pose.

Just when things seem completely out of control, McTavish arrives. He’s no ordinary dog—he’s on a mission to restore order with calm, wisdom, and a wagging tail. But can one small rescue dog fix an entire family?

Packed with warmth, wit, and dry humour, Good Dog McTavish is a charming and uplifting story for readers of all ages from award-winning author Meg Rosoff.

This dyslexia-friendly edition is printed on cream paper with a specially designed font, making it easier for everyone to enjoy the story.

Why we — and schools — love it:

• Brilliant for shared reading: kids laugh, adults nod knowingly.
• A gentle way to explore family dynamics and resilience.
• Dyslexia-friendly format that promotes inclusive literacy.
