The Last... series
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Last... series is a series of books by late Scottish author Harry Horse. It currently consists of four books—The Last Polar Bears, The Last Gold Diggers, The Last Cowboys and The Last Castaways. The Last Polar Bears was turned into a 30-minute cartoon for CITV in 2000. They all tell of the travels of Grandpa and his dog, Roo, who is based on Harry's real-life dog of the same name and are told through Grandpa's letters to "his child," presumably either his son or daughter or a grandchild.
