'Busy Izzy and Newly Truly - The Big Surprise! written by Roxanne Kiely and illustrated by Jeesoo Kim, is a great new story book about the adventures of Busy Izzy, a vivacious and capable 12-year-old girl, and her newly-adopted puppy, "Newly Truly". As her friends know, "Busy Izzy always knew what to do." The story concerns our hero, Busy Izzy, becoming aware of the plight of the poor forgotten animals which pass through the S.P.C.A. (The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.,the worldwide organisation which, in Australia, has "Royal" in front of its name). While she is there, she meets a young puppy, and the two of them get along so well that Busy Izzy decides to adopt him and bring him home to Nix & Nax to meet all her friends. Its a heart warming story which will engage the hearts of children everywhere, as the puppy, whom Busy Izzy names "Newly Truly, meets and becomes friends with all the children in Green Grass Grove. And, there's a surprise in store for Busy Izzy, as well as all the readers of this beautiful addition to the Busy Izzy series.
