Grandad and Boy look after a cat for a friend. Boy does lots of reading up about what cats like, but the cat is having none of it. And then it runs off into the wild, leading Grandad and Boy into a wild jungle fantasy adventure of their own.
The second title in Sam Usher's new quartet of books where a boy and his grandad explore the natural world.
A boy and his grandfather are tasked with caring for a cat. While the boy is excited for their day together, the cat-an
impassive smudge of gray who glides from page to page-resists his initial offers of food and play. Cats will be cats,
his grandpa reminds him-until she escapes, and leads them to an unexpected world of fun and wonder. Tranquil,
winsome illustrations that evoke Quentin Blake and Stephen Kellogg light up this story about getting along with our
furry friends.
