Buzz Sausage Wolf has a new neighbour - but OH NO, it's a CAT!
Everyone knows, cats and dogs are NEVER friends. But maybe this strange Smelly Cat is different. . .

A hilariously silly full-colour illustrated story about making friends, ideal for newly independent readers moving on from picture books.



A warmly funny story for fans of Rabbit and Bear, large dollops of silliness and the occasional unexpected dog parp.

Praise for Buzz Sausage Wolf:
'Buzz is a furry little heart-stealer on a mission: be loved, supply laughs, win you over. Mission accomplished.' - James Davis, author of Scarlet: Defender of the Universe
