The Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Dog is the first novel in a highly popular and hilarious children's series. The story focuses on a boy named Streaker who must train his out-of-control, phenomenally fast dog, named Fetch, for a race. The only problem is Fetch literally runs at a hundred miles an hour, causing chaos, breaking rules, and generally turning Streaker's life upside down. The book is an absurd, fast-paced comedy that celebrates the chaotic love between a boy and his impossible pet, appealing to readers who enjoy high-energy slapstick humor.
