Description


From a New York Times bestselling author and creator of the beloved comic strip Mutts comes the beloved story about nothing--and everything!--perfect for gift-giving at the holidays and year round.

Mooch the cat desperately wants to get his friend Earl the dog a gift for the holidays, but Earl already has everything he needs. "What do you give a guy who has everything?" Mooch wonders. Then it dawns on him: nothing! But it turns out nothing is harder to find than you'd think...
The perennial favorite The Gift of Nothing has sold hundreds of thousands of copies, and in this adaptation for the board book, brings to the youngest readers its heartfelt, timeless message about the priceless value of friendship.
