Henry: The Queen’s Corgi

By: Georgie Crawley

Narrated by: David Thorpe, Beth Chalmers

The heart-warming story of one little dog’s big adventure, and the lives he changes along the way.

This Christmas, anything could happen…

When their pet corgi goes missing on a trip to London, the Walker family search everywhere. But Henry has ended up in the one place they never think to look…

Henry has been mistaken for a royal corgi by the Queen’s Guard, and found himself in a very different sort of family home. In no time, Henry is getting the royal treatment in Buckingham Palace, from velvet thrones to a personal chef. If this is a dog’s life, he doesn’t mind it one bit.

But as Christmas spirit fills the palace, Henry knows he must somehow get back to the Walkers. Because true family is for life, not just for Christmas…

Heart-warming and irresistibly funny, HENRY: THE QUEEN’S CORGI is the perfect listen for fans of A STREET CAT NAMED BOB and A PUG LIKE PERCY.

Corgi personality

Being a former corgi owner and an enthusiast of the breed, I found the book very entertaining to listen to especially the narrators intonations.

Would recommend for good easy and fun listening

What a fun listen

Henry was very lovable in this listen too. As a Corgi lover and caretaker Crawley expressed how a Pet Corgi “wishful thinking” would see the world. Our corgi Biscuit would love to play the part of one of the Queen’s corgi. Finished in a day

A Sweet Christmas Charmer

Henry: The Queen's Corgi reminded me so much of Claude's Christmas Adventures that I had to pause the book long enough to look up the author.
Okay, so it's not written by the same person, but if you've read/listened to the latter, the former will seem a tad familiar.
There's a stressed-out family, social media for seeking out a lost dog, and an unutterably adorable canine.
And of course! Just a touch of romance that only a little lost dog longing for a sense of place can inspire in a couple of equally lost souls.
While Beth Chalmers does a great job with narration, it's David Thorpe as Henry who really steals the show, conveying Henry's many, many, MANY emotions with such dexterity that you're breathless with delight.
Definitely a sweet Christmas listen!

Sweet and cheery

Best comfort listen ever! I love dogs and British accents. And I love listening to something deliciously sweet like this after I’ve finished a scary true crime book.
