The book seems to be a children story, I have even watched a movie where a dog is lost and finally return to home, I am excited to read cat version. Review is very well written and I will definitely read the book.

This story sounds absolutely adorable! Children should be told these kinds of stories that are educational and with cute animal characters. Congrats on BOTD!

This sounds like a delightful read for little ones who love animals, especially cats. I think so many of us pet owners can relate to the worries surrounding a family pet gone missing, and I think it's a unique idea to be written from the cat's point of view. Thanks for the lovely review.

I don't generally enjoy children's books, but I am definitely a cat person so I may take a peak inside this one anyway. Thanks for a great review!

A children's book about a cat called Shadow who, realizing that the door was left open, goes out to catch those birds that he has been looking at for so long. Later, he doesn't know which way home is. This book seems to be an excellent option for children in elementary school. It includes good editing, excellent drawings, and a great story.

I am also a cat person. I find this story very cute! It is a great idea to turn the true story of author's cat gone missing into this children's book!

That's adorable! Wasn't there a movie that followed a dog and a cat coming home? It was called Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey.
Anyway, it's lovely.
Thank you for your review.

A heart touching children’s book "Shadow's Adventure Home" by Kathy Kovar, which is
is based on the true story of the author’s own cat, which went missing for 2 years. The story follows a cat named Shadow, who forgets the way back home after chasing birds. The story looks appealing.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.
