Summary
From a remarkable new talent, here is the story of Dinah, a sheltered (and overfed) cat who escapes to have an adventure in the outside world. After being mistaken for a watermelon, a sheep, and a raccoon, Dinah finally recovers her identity as a beloved pet. Hilarious pictures complement the tongue-in-cheek text in this fresh, original picture book about family, belonging, and the meaning of home.
First line
A family got a tiny cat.
