"This book was inspired by a real dog, who had "no use for cats." This tale shares Truffle's opportunity to understand and ultimately to overcome his disregard for cats. He doesn't understand why they exist, and he sees no reason why he should interact with them, but they are all around him. He meets cats on his daily walks, at the tea shop; they are everywhere! Finally, he meets a cat who is somehow different, and things start to shift. Sharing Truffle's cat transition as a gentle process, unfolding slowly, David's story helps children to learn that we can all change in unexpected ways and that real change takes time. Truffle also celebrates the joys of new and long-lasting friendships"-- Provided by publisher.
