Fourteen-year-old Dave and his lawyer dad never seem to see eye-to-eye. In fact, they are always arguing, which upsets Dave's mother causing her to have an asthma attack. Then Dave finds Cat, a stray that his elderly cat-lady friend Kate takes in, and adopts him. On his outings with Cat, Dave meets new friends and learns a lot about himself and his father. Winner of the 1964 Newbery Medal.
