Little dog Barney lives on a narrowboat with his owner, Jim. The pair are inseparable - until they get separated. Barney loves his life on the canals but the one thing he's frightened of is tunnels. So when Jim sets off into a tunnel without him, Barney is distraught. Luckily, another boat owner gives him a ride through the tunnel. When he gets to the other end Jim's boat is moored up - but Jim isn't on it! And in their efforts to be reunited, man and dog just keep missing each other until poor Barney is completely worn out. However, finally brave dog Barney has to overcome his fear and enter the nasty tunnel - alone.

My seven year old grandaughter loved the the cover portrait of Barney the Boat Dog and was gripped by the story. It chugs along at first, just like Whistling Jack, the narrow boat, but becomes very exciting when Barney gets left behind at a lock. It's a mistake. Jim his beloved owner doesn't mean to leave him behind. Of course not. But what is a dog to do? Dare he go back through the dreaded dark tunnel all by himself. Will Barney and Jim ever be reunited? Soon Barney is 'dizzy with muddlement' but he never gives up and there is a very happy ending. Phew! I love Linda Newbery's writing and it was a pleasure to share this realistic zap-free story with my grandaughter.
