  • Friends of a dog or cat lover. A book about their pet makes a birthday gift that needs no explaining. It is also a gentle way to say you are thinking of them when their pet has passed.
  • Parents of young children with a pet at home. A storybook where your child and your real dog or cat are both heroes, with a value like kindness or responsibility woven in.
