Beskrivning
Groucho’s name is obvious to Kristie when she names her new kitten. He’s as white as a cloud everywhere except for those two black smudges above his eyes. What other name could she have given him? Kristie and Groucho become fast friends and playmates, reading together, snuggling under the quilt, and playing hide-and-seek, tracking games in the snow of a far north winter.  When Grouch wanders away one wintery day, Kristie must rely on her Alaskan outdoor skills and woodsy savvy to follow various animal tracks.  Young readers join her in a search for those precious black eyebrows in a scary, snowy world full of moose, fox, and other creatures of the wild.

Cat sneaked into author’s heart, book. Anyone who has ever been nutty about a feline companion knows how a cat can pad into a house one minute and creep into a heart the next. Alaska author, Tricia Brown’s white cat with black marks above its eyes managed to climb into her career too. The former family pet, on which Brown based her new book children’s book, “Groucho’s Eyebrows” was a reject at an animal shelter in Fairbanks when Brown found her.
