"For those of us who know what it's like to love and lose an animal member of the family, this book is so poignant, beautiful and ultimately hopeful."
- Clare Balding,
Toby's cat, Jack, is THE best cat EVER. But Jack is getting old, and Toby will miss his furry best friend terribly when he's gone.
Then Toby meets a crazy cat called Humphrey. In this charming and beautifully illustrated picture book Rebecca Elliott addresses the difficult subject of a child's first experience of the death of a pet with warmth, sensitivity and well placed humour.
