Growing up on the family farm in Ballyfin, Ireland, Noel Fitzpatrick spent his childhood tending to the cattle and sheep with his beloved sheepdog, Pirate, who comforted him after he was bullied by the kids at school. This bond with animals inspired him to become a vet – but not just any vet, A SUPERVET!
Noel has treated thousands of animals – many of whom were thought to be beyond help. Discover the incredible stories of the brave animals he has worked with, from Peanut, the world’s first cat with two bionic front limbs, to Betsy, the six-month-old cockapoo, who was given a new lease of life when her crushed paw was replaced with a skateboard wheel!
The perfect gift for young animal lovers, packed with true tales that celebrate kindness, perseverance and the unbreakable bonds between humans and animals.
