Sounds like a great children's book. I'm sure many kids will be entertained especially if they are cat lovers.

Losing a pet for two years can be traumatic and I'm sure it was for the author. I'm glad she was able to turn the situation around and pen a lovely book for kids to enjoy.

What a lovely story. The book is suitable for children because of the lessons and illustrations made to capture their attention. Nice review.

I'm personally not a cat person; I prefer dogs. Still, this story about the curious Shadow is inspiring for any one who reads it. Perhaps it'll cause pet owners to be more careful with their doors too.

This would be an excellent book for kids to help them grieve a lost pet. I remember when my black lab/greyhound puppy got out and was gone overnight and we were so scared. Thanks for the review! :)

I’m glad to see that I'm not the only one who thought there was a well presented pencil theme to the illustrations. I'm as curious as a cat about how on earth Shadow found its way home after two years. Pun intended.

I can't imagine what it's like to lose a beloved pet; I have never owned one. I hope Shadow finds his way home.

A well-crafted children's book, well written and beautifully illustrated. This one would easily make a bedtime favourite. Thanks for your review.
