2022 Next Generation Indie Book Awards: Finalist for Children's Picture Book Best Illustrator AND Finalist for Animals/Pets Book.
Buddy the cat is abandoned in the woods. Despite hardships and setbacks, Buddy perseveres until finally his bravery rewarded. So many animals would make wonderful companions if only -- like Buddy -- they were given a chance.
This is a much-needed picture book for children to understand the special way of relating to a rescue cat. Children naturally want to run up to a cat, pick the cat up and cuddle. For a cat who may have never had contact with a human being or who may have been abused or neglected, this is too much, too fast. In Brave Buddy, the little girl takes cues from the cat, and slowly trust and love grow between them. THIS IS RESCUE AT ITS BEST.
