Henry the Queen’s Corgi by Georgie Crawley

All in all the prose was perfectly serviceable for the story. You very much got a sense of her frustration, stress, and love for her family. You never know – we might get lucky.’ I wasn’t sure how lucky it would really be to meet the owner of those terror-birds, but Claire hopped up and down on the spot, clapping her hands, so maybe I was missing something.Amy's voice was also very well done. ‘I read in the paper this morning that she was heading out from the Palace later today. ‘We’ve seen the pelicans – let’s go see if we can catch a glimpse of their owner,’ Amy suggested.

But I was willing to rejig the top two if pelicans were even better. What if they were like squirrels? Squirrels were my favourite things to chase. What were pelicans, anyway? I couldn’t commit to not chasing them until I’d found out. ‘No chasing the pelicans now!’ Amy called after me, as she and the kids followed. The voice of Henry was enthusiastic and empathetic (as all corgis are) while also being driven by a fierce need to be reunited with his family. Given the story's premise the book was actually pretty good.

well, you'll just have to read this heartwarming book to find out. She is so associated with them they make multiple appearances on the TV show The Crown.* Anyway, shenanigans ensue, friendships are made, hardships are overcome, and in the end. As you may or may not know the Queen loves corgis. It is rough for her and made even worse when Henry ends up getting lost and mistaken for the Queen's new corgi. The father has just ditched the family for his secretary and Amy must raise their two teenage children on her own. It is a tough time for the Walker family. So this story takes place form two points a view: the eponymous Henry (corgi) and his owner Amy Walker (human).

I was not let down by this story at all, there were lots of Corgis (an aggregate of five to be specific). More corgis in one's life = a better life. So naturally when my wife got me a book about a Corgi I was thrilled. Who doesn't love corgis (apart from amoral monsters)? I mean, just look at them:
