Sassafrass Jones recently partnered up with the Sant Ambroeus Coffee Bar to host a Holiday Yappy Hour. Sant Ambroeus Coffee Bar is located at the Loews Regency Hotel, at 540 Park Avenue. The Coffee Bar serves Milanese cuisine and the service is extraordinary! The fun event had copies of Sassafrass Jones and the Search For a Forever Home for sale, and all proceeds from the sale of the books and other products were donated to the Humane Society of New York. The event was also attended by some very energetic and furry friends, some of whom were available for adoption through the Humane Society of New York. The event was hosted by Kelly Bensimon and was filled with fun holiday festivities, including a silent auction, raffles, holiday-inspired sweets, hot cocoa and photo opps.

Sassafrass Jones and the Search For a Forever Home, written by Cathleen Smith Bresciani, follows the story of a Sassafrass Jones, who is a Pekingese with an eye condition. Sassafrass Jones has been living at the Last Chance Adoption Centre and wants to have a family that will love her and care for her. Her future changes when she meets Madeline, who is a lonely mouse with dreams of fashion. Once the two meet, they team up for a contest that will change both of their lives for the better. Cathleen Smith Bresciani did a great job in writing this book. Readers of all ages will enjoy reading the journey of Sassafrass Jones.
