Golden Wizard Book Prize award-winning Sally Mitts Finds A Home (The Story Of A Shy Shelter Kitten) is a tender, heartwarming story about courage, love, and a brave kitten's journey to her new forever home.

When little Sally's family moves away, she is left alone in the world. Wandering unknown streets, our bodacious kitten has adventures both wonderful and scary. When a well-meaning Samaritan finds Sally asleep on their doorstep, they take her to an animal shelter, where she is surrounded by strangers. Lonely and feeling very small, she tries to curl into a ball and hide.

Then Sally felt a warm nudge. What was this?

One of the cats was rubbing against her!

Right through the cage, she felt his soft fur.

And he made the sweetest sound,

a loud rumbling purr.

Life is so much better with a friend! But when Charlie is adopted, Sally feels more alone than ever. Considered unfriendly and unadaptable because she is shy, it looks like Sally may languish in a cage forever. Until a patient man who won't go away offers her the chance to trust again.

"A beautifully illustrated book that touches the heart and nurtures

empathy for our furry friends."

Anju Philip,

Golden Wizard Award-winning author

"The author's writing is simply brilliant! The way they have masterfully crafted the story and breathed life into Sally's character is truly praiseworthy. As a result, this tale truly touched me, it resonated with me on a profound level, and the ending brought such a comforting and satisfying feeling. It's safe to say that it has left a lasting impression, and I have no doubt that children will

absolutelv adore it as well.

"As a proud mom of three rescued cats myself, I love the message that this book conveys. It beautifully showcases the magic of adopting from a pet shelter and the incredible bond that can be formed between humans and their furry

companions."
