TODO IN TUSCANY: THE DOG AT THE VILLA
Book ID/图书代码： 06140512B54473
English Summary/英文概要： A dream house in Tuscany ...and a dog named Todo.
Todo had been waiting at Poggiolino since his mistress died over two years before. The house lay empty and neglected and yet he wouldn’t leave. He seemed to know that someday the right people would come along and make it a home again.
Louise and Lawrence weren’t thinking of buying the very first house they looked at in Tuscany. In fact, their plans to move from London were barely formed ...but there was something enchanting about the dog waiting at the gates. If they were honest, they wanted Todo - the scruffy dog with the huge grin - as much as they wanted the house. With Todo as their faithful companion they began to restore Poggiolino to life, unlocking her secrets and giving Todo, their beloved dog, a second chance. A heart-warming memoir of moving country, making a new life and coming home.
