Original fairy tales are delightful, and The Adventures of Caterwaul is just that, filled with humorous dialogues and phrases that will keep the reader spellbound. Caterwaul the cat jumps from the frying pan into the fire when he escapes the clutches of the Witch of Red Moon Forest and moves in with the aging Queen Druciah, thinking he has finally found a home. Things seem pretty good until he discovers that there is one small catch: Caterwaul must find the queen a pure white female cat and use his magic to help her learn the long-forgotten recipe for Feline Pie. Because he yearns for a home of his own, Caterwaul takes on the challenge that throws him into messes with militant frogs, feline mobsters, wicked hunters, corrupt police constables, and giant snapping turtles. Does Caterwaul succeed. . .and does he turn over a pure white female cat to Druciah for her wicked plans?
