Everybody loves an underdog, but what happens when the underdog looks scary? Find out in this action-packed, green-themed adventure, where looks can be deceiving and heroes have to work hard to get noticed!
Despite his rough and tumble appearance, Demo’s a good dog, but good doesn't cut it at Junkyard Joe’s Junkyard, where only bad attitudes, bad luck and bad smells prevail. Joe can't stand Demo’s friendliness and he REALLY can't stand his shopaholic neighbors in Newton, USA whose trash has overtaken his yard.
When Joe hatches a diabolical plan to imprison the town in their own junk, Demo must spring into action to save them, but does he have what it takes to defeat Joe's Newton Solution to Pollution Machine?
A modern fable that gently pokes fun at our throwaway society, Demo encourages readers to reconsider the things they might otherwise dismiss as disposable, while inspiring them to root for the underdog – no matter what his appearance may be.
