Ten Kittens

A gentle chorus of real‑life kitten adventures fills this collection, each story drawn from different corners of the country. The narratives show how tiny paws can touch big hearts, inviting young listeners to see the value of compassion and responsibility toward animals. By sharing these episodes, the book hopes to spark a lasting affection for kittens in boys and girls alike.

One of the most memorable kittens, Mack, begins his life in a rescue league after being born into a litter stricken by mange. A caring family adopts him, and the kitten quickly learns clever tricks, from opening doors to sitting politely at the table. When a kitchen fire breaks out, Mack’s urgent meows alert his human family in time to prevent disaster, earning him a place as a true household hero. His later travels from Albany to Chicago, Kansas City, and a quiet town illustrate how a treasured pet can bring warmth and dependable companionship wherever it goes.
