When Addy loses her kitten to an accident, she is sure that her friend Koo can bring him back to life. Instead she learns that grief is someting we all have in common. Muth’s interpretation of this Buddhist tale of healing is infused with compassion. The way to Cat Heaven is a field of sweet grass, where crickets and butterflies play! With a gentle rhyme, Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant explores all the ways our beloved cats enjoy Cat Heaven. With graceful art and simple stories that are filled with love and enlightenment, Jon Muth — and Stillwater the bear — present three ancient Zen tales that are sure to strike a chord in everyone they touch.
