'A heartwarming story about Alfie, who may not be the bravest dog, but just might be the kindest, by Richard Harris 2019 Australian of the Year and key member of the international cave-diving team that rescued the Wild Boar soccer team.

'A heartwarming picture book about kindness by Australian of the Year Dr Richard 'Harry' Harris. Harry was a member of the international cave-diving group that rescued the Wild Boar soccer team in Thailand.

'Alfie is not the bravest dog, he is scared of magpies, swimming in the sea and things with noisy wheels like skateboards and wheelbarrows! But maybe there is something else he's good at?

'Alfie loves his family and is always looking for ways to help or make them happy, from wake-up licks to sharing his favourite toy. One day at the park when he comes across a small boy who is sad, Alfie discovers that his true talent might be the thing that comes most naturally to him, his kindness.' (Publication summary)
