Publisher's Summary The story that became a global sensation: Sophie, the Australian cattle dog who was lost at sea and swam six miles through shark-infested waters to a remote island where she survived in the wild for five months. It was just another day in paradise as Jan and Dave Griffith, along with their blue cattle dog, Sophie, motored out of Mackay Marina for a gorgeous weekend at sea. But when the sky suddenly darkened and the waves turned fierce, the unthinkable happened: Sophie disappeared overboard. Her heartbroken humans couldn’t fathom the loss and could only hope their beloved pet didn’t suffer. But this true cattle dog and devoted best friend wasn’t going to give up that easily - and what followed is a remarkable tale of survival, luck, and persistence. From the first day the Griffiths set eyes on puppy Sophie through that terrible October day she was lost, to Sophie’s time as a castaway and the reunion that almost didn’t happen, journalist Emma Pearse recreates the incredible journey of this canine Robinson Crusoe. An inspirational story of loyalty and the resilience of the spirit, Sophie offers undeniable proof about the unbreakable bond between humans and our pets - and that if lost, they would do anything to come home to us.

Sophie is the story of a remarkable dog's survival despite enormous odds.It wasn't just the challenges she overcame, but the amazing chance that reunited her with her family.If this was fiction, the plot might be said to be predictable.This however was real life and the outcome for Sophie and her family was anything but predictable.You could say it was miraculous.
Enjoyed Anna-Lisa Horton's slight accent.This is a true story of an Australian Cattle dog named Sophie.The story takes place with a family and their dog in Queensland, Aus. Sophie goes out on the boat with them and in rough sea goes overboard.She apparently swan 6 miles to an Island and then at least once or more times swam to another island until landing on one with fresh water and wild goats.She survived for 5 months.The story cover her life as a pet and then the rescue of her by the park rangers.I usually avoid most animal stories as the endings are sad but this book has a happy ending and was not particularly sad at any time during the story.The fact that it is a true story adds to it.This book makes a nice change of pace if you are looking for a break from more complex reading.The kids would like this book also.
