Bonnie the tiny white dog takes on the great outdoors in her fifth "Racing Reads" adventure. 'Camping's not for girls - or girlie dogs!' said Zack. 'This is a boys-only survival adventure!' Harry and Zack are planning a camping trip in the wild outdoors. There's only one rule: no girls allowed - and that includes Bonnie. But Busy Dog Bonnie has other ideas - camping is hard work, and it's about time she showed those boys who the real survivor is.

The dog show is in town, and Harry's mum has a worrying idea. Wouldn't Bonnie look perfect done up as a showdog, with a big bow in her hair? Before Harry can groan 'Oh no', Bonnie is whisked down to the Millionhairs Dog Grooming Parlour to be fluffed to perfection.

If there are two things Harry hates, it's dancing with girls and watching his mum giggle with her new boyfriend. As his birthday party looms, Harry starts to wonder if his new extended family will ever get on. But Bright Dog Bonnie has a plan to bring everyone back together - and she might just have a surprise for all of us!

"I want to visit Dad," said Harry, "but I'm not going without Bonnie." Harry's dad lives in London now and he wants Harry to come and visit. But Harry can't go without Bonnie - who else will help him to be brave when he sees Dad's new life in the big city? But Bonnie's about to have an adventure of her own -- one that'll show everybody that you don't have to be big to be brave!

Harry longs for a dog to help him cope with all the problems he faces in his new town. His best friend is an imaginary hound called Prince -- big, strong, brown-and black mixed. So when his mum gets a real dog called Bonnie -- tiny, white and fluffy -- Harry wants nothing to do with the embarrassing pooch!
