One Sweet Picture Book About the Bond Between a Boy and Feline Friends

From the award-winning author of Kitten and the Night Watchman comes a heartwarming picture book about a young boy who finds joy in rescuing and caring for stray cats.

On the way to school, Ethan notices some stray kittens in the alleyway. He wants to look after them, but his dad has a strict no-pet policy. Still, with the help of his older brother, Ethan does what he can to rescue the kittens and realizes that caring for something else can bring great joy. This hopeful story is based on the author’s real-life experiences rescuing stray animals.

“The author, John Sullivan, has rescued dozens of cats in Chicago, his hometown. And his commitment and care and love for cats comes through in every line of this tender and memorable picture book.”
