Description by Author:
Boris, a stray kitten rescued from the city
streets, finds his forever home on the farm of his dreams!
There, with his sassy older sister, Olga,
they explore the farmstead and all it has to offer. Through the antics and
adventures of these two adorable cats, you’ll meet an array of animals, both
wild and domestic. Among the interesting characters are Boris and Olga’s silly
brother, Charlie the Dog, and their friends Gus the Squirrel, Charlotte the
Horse, Zeke the Mallard Duck, and the Holstein Heifers, Betsy and Ellie Mae.
You will learn alongside Boris as he is
taught about his new life. You will get the chance to discover farm activities,
including how hay is made and the process of milking cows, and amazing facts,
like why birds migrate. You will be able to hunt for frogs, climb a Christmas
tree, and even go to the vet.
Come discover the things that fascinate a
feline and experience it through the eyes of the cat himself!

This chapter book is designed to teach
children about animals and the world around them, targeting ages 6 to 13. It
was devised to help children to have empathy for all living things while
finding a realistic acceptance of nature. Some things are happy and humorous,
while others are not. Educational and entertaining, this collection of feline
adventures is an enjoyable read for children and adults alike!
