The renowned cat conservationist reflects on his early childhood struggles with a speech disorder, describing how he only spoke fluently when he was communicating with animals and how he resolved at a young age to find his voice to be their advocate.

In this true story, a boy who stutters except when he speaks to animals, promises that if he can find his voice, he will be their voice and keep them from harm.
