The first children's book to appear in English by the award-winning
Israeli master storyteller
What happens when a tired boy with a fertile imagination is left to fend
for himself at the zoo? Well, if his father is too busy to play and must
talk business on his phone, and it's close to naptime, then ... a lot.
After freeing sad animals from their cages, the boy takes a ride in an
airship with an old turtle and a lazy rhinoceros. Once on board he
describes to Habakkuk, the ship's captain, the traits of the rarely seen
long-haired cat-boy cub: Long-haired cat-boy cubs need to be played with
once an hour to stay alive. Also, you cannot wash a long-haired cat-boy
cub in water, they only like to drink juice and chocolate milk, and,
most of all, you must listen to a long-haired cat-boy cub's story to the
end even if you get a call from work.
Long-Haired Cat-Boy Cub is a clever and captivating tale that will
appeal to any cub who has busy parents and a busier imagination.
