From fun in the ice-cream parlour, to teasing the neighbour's tabbies, Floss finds mischief at every turn, but when things go wrong, she uses her skills for good, and saves the day. A celebration of the bond between an owner and their pet, with a core message that helps children to understand how to find safe grown ups and to know what to do if they get lost.
