Mocha, the real doctor, resides in Dr. Susan's veterinary clinic and sleeps by day, but when night has come and the staff has gone home, leaving the many sick and hurting animals to convalesce, it is time for Mocha to make his rounds. Up Mocha springs, straightens his tail, and sets to attentively visiting each patient. Gently, he sings, purrs, and coaxes every one to health. All his healing work done and having made his usual lordly daybreak stroll through Dr. Susan's flower beds, Mocha has his breakfast and settles down in his cozy basket. This book is a modern myth of healing, meaningful for any sick child or for any child concerned for an ailing pet.
