Friends from different backgrounds come together in a
heartwarming picture book that is perfect for Passover, from beloved
children’s book author Patricia Polacco!

Larnel doesn’t know his neighbor, Mrs. Katz, very well, until he asks her
to adopt an abandoned kitten. Mrs. Katz agrees on one condition: that Larnel
helps her take care of the kitten she names Tush. When Larnel starts spending
more and more time with Mrs. Katz to help with Tush, Mrs. Katz tells him
stories about coming to America from Poland and about the good times she
spent with her late husband. As Larnel grows to love Mrs. Katz, he also
learns about the common themes of hardship and triumph in each of their
cultures.
