Book Description

Jan was born in London England. She worked in radio. Word got out that her boss, Rick, was a serious friend of felines. Six cats took up residence. Dusty, a silver kitten, made herself at home in Jan’s outbox. Each cat had an account at the vets and was written off the radio station’s taxes. The IRS accepted the deduction. The cats were banished when the station was sold. Dusty joined Jan’s family. The author had an epiphany as she watched the cat interact with her grandchildren. She realized a cat could convey gentle insightful messages to empower children. Illustrations add another layer to inspire parents, teachers, siblings, and friends, and all children ages four to a hundred and four to enjoy and share the fun. With love and appreciation to Marissa, Braum, Jackie, and Asher, who is named Forrest in the story. Special thank you to: Braum Katz for his technical expertise in resurrecting lost data, to Sue Kinney for her lessons in using the computer- most especially to paint, to Lauren Mattisse for the final edit, to Lynn Spain for sharing these “tails” with her special students and to Ernestine Martinez for guidance and support.
