“This heartwarming picture book is a must-read for young animal lovers, showing the compassionate bonds we create when we choose to be kind.” —BCCB“Sumovich fills her clever narrative…with such lines as ‘she appears like a magic trick, mowling like a banshee’ that make this entertaining to read aloud. Park gives each cat a distinct personality and look and excels at amusing facial expressions and limber body language…After some climactic drama, the story reaches a satisfying conclusion…delightful.” —Horn Book
