Barnabas and the Star Kitten

By Elspeth Allen

What happens when a bachelor cat finds his very civilized existence suddenly intercepted by an orphaned kitten? Children and adults alike will delight to learn the answer in this charming tale. Stunning linocut-style illustrations transport the reader to the world of Barnabas the cat. His is a lush forest where ferns tower overhead, bats swoop low in the sky, and a blackberry bramble is nothing short of a maze. Young readers in particular will enjoy following the kitten's antics from one page to another. Whether tearing off into the creek, bristling at a bear, or determinedly keeping Barnabas awake when he would rather sleep, she is certain to strike a chord with all young children who meet her. Sure to become a sleepy snuggly time favorite, Barnabas and the Star Kitten shows that families can come in all forms and even an old can learn new tricks.
