«Der Hirte, der Engel und Walter, der Weihnachts-Wunderhund» is Dave Barry's Christmas novel, published by Heyne in paperback (112 pages, in German).
Set in 1960, Doug Barnes tells of his family's Christmas: the rehearsals of the nativity play at church, his father's attempt to assemble a bicycle, and life with Frank, their aging dog. Amid domestic chaos and Christmas Eve surprises, the story blends humour and warmth.
The English original, «The Shepherd, the Angel, and Walter the Christmas Miracle Dog», was published in 2006; this German edition is from 2010.
For readers wanting a warm, funny Christmas read; its humour and accessible tone also work well for families.
