“A soft-hearted, warm advocate for animals of all kinds…[the book] chronicles many affecting encounters with animals.” * Kirkus * “Bestseller Katz (Saving Simon) fills his latest book with moving essays on what he has learned from different animals… Katz is at his most successful when relating the sometimes heartbreaking stories of animals or urging readers to consider how animals perceive the world.” * Publishers Weekly * “Katz tells illuminating stories about why he chose each animal and what that animal taught him… [his] honest, straightforward, and sometimes searing prose will speak to those who love animals, and might well convert some who do not.” * Booklist *
