Book Description
for The Unexpected Adventures of C.A.T. by Johanna Hurwitz and Sam Loman
From the Publisher
"Opens the door to an unusual confluence of worlds, with cats, people, and Jewish identity all intersecting." --The Jewish Book Council
She feels so cat-like herself that when her actual cat Ollie, a very picky eater, refuses to eat a mysterious new kind of cat food, she tries to encourage him by tasting a tiny bit of it herself (and finds it, surprisingly, not awful.) That night Chaya has the craziest dream--she dreams she really has become a cat, one with orange fur, the exact color of her own hair.
Or is it a dream?
Join in the adventures as C.A.T. and her annoying older brother Daniel use some magical food to become cats, prowl their neighborhood at night, prevent a cat-astrophe, and see each other in a whole new light.
A purr-fect chapter book for middle grade readers (ages 8-12) who like animals and fantasy adventure, even if they are pickier eaters than C.A.T.
