Tess dictated her book titled, Training People: How to Bring Out The Best In Your Human. The book offers advice on such subjects as choosing your human, techniques for getting the food you want, and how to cope with cats.

FYI:

If you’re interested in nonfiction, look for Cromwell Dixon: A Boy and his Plane 1892-1911, by Martin Kidston from Helena, Montana.

And here’s a thought from Richard Steele: “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.”
