Taffy is the star of the story, but every animal I've had the pleasure of sharing my life with has contributed to the sentiments upon which the book is based, so I think Heidi deserves her shout out!

Thank you MSVA for publishing the backstory of Taffy's book! Although the editors left out the picture I mentioned of me reading to our dog Heidi back in the day, so I'm including it below.

This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
