Fall in love with cuddly Teddy MacDougal, an inquisitive West Highland white terrier on his mischievous adventure behind the Secret Garden Door. Once inside the garden, Teddy learns about the perils of the garden specifically, the Red Fox of Kennelworth. Meet all the woodland creatures from the author's garden like the three yellow finches, Farrel the Frog, King Elliot, a monarch butterfly and even Teddy's human little sister Charlotte. As an outspoken westie, Teddy finds himself struggling to fit in with his new friends and discovers a life lesson along the way that will leave you longing for the next book.

**My thoughts**
If you love Westies, you're probably going to love this book. These dogs definitely have their own personalities and dedicated fans. And this was a sweet story of one who finds his way out of his own yard and finds a whole new world to explore. Along the way, he meets many new animal friends and even gets his human to go along with him to help him navigate his new friendships. 

The illustrations appear to be hand-drawn, which is something you don't see as much of anymore. They were also sweet. 

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for fulfilling my request for a review copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
