The story of a little black cat and a 13-year old girl who team up to fight an evil mad scientist.
When a mysterious stranger kidnaps her son Shoo, Minna is determined to do anything to save her kitten, but her desperate search grinds to a halt when she gets adopted by a 13-year old girl named Ava. After Minna escapes her new home to search for Shoo, Ava goes on her own daring quest to find and rescue her beloved cat. Together, they must find out more about Doctor Leo Tyger. What is his real name? Why is he trapping cats in his basement? And what is making all the neighborhood cats terrified of the tree in his backyard?
Set in New York City's West Village, TREE OF CATS delightfully imagines that cats have their own Internet, an ancient information-sharing network called the Catalogue. Suitable for readers of all ages, with ten illustrations by Alison Bechdel, this is the last work award-winning novelist Ellis Avery completed before her death from cancer at age 46.
Equal parts fantasy, thriller, and coming-of-age story, TREE OF CATS celebrates girl power, the invincible feline spirit, and the love between humans and cats. If you adore cats and have ever wondered what’s going on in their minds when they stare intently at nothing, this is the book for you!
