This playful story about a little girl and her best cat friend is a unique exploration of the changes children go through as they grow from toddler to big kid—for fans of Truman and Big Cat, Little Cat.
Scamp believes there are two cats in her house—one pink (Scamp herself) and one black (Hector)—until her growing body begins behaving in not-so-catlike ways. She suddenly finds herself standing on two feet…eating with a spoon…even enjoying the bath. What is happening to her? But when Hector needs help, Scamp must choose between acting like a cat and taking a big-girl stand to rescue her friend.
This sweet and poignant picture book, with inviting watercolor art by a debut talent, perfectly captures the moment when a little girl realizes she is becoming a big girl, and the universal bittersweet beauty of change.
