Matty Doolin by Catherine Cookson - 1975 Piccolo UK or Corgi paperback edition

Matty Doolin is 15 and, in his Tyneside home in the 1960s, this means it is time for him to leave school and follow his father into the docks.  All Matty really wants, however, is to work with animals, tend them, help them, care for them.  But he has no qualifications and his parents have no real understanding of his ambition - they won't even let him keep Nelson, the old stray dog he befriends and takes home.
Yet, finally, it is because of Nelso
n
that Matty gets permission to go on a camping holiday with his friends, Joe and Willie. And this holiday, on a farm high on the fells, is to take Matty through unexpected danger to a new and satisfying way of life......
