A Cat All His Own

Ryan wants a cat all his own. His older brother Aaron has his very own cat — Jeremy Pumpkinhead. But when Dad surprises Ryan with a kitten — he names her Gadean — she is feisty and fun, but not cuddly and snuggly, and she never ever purrs, which makes Ryan sad. Until one day….

A Cat All His Own reminds kids AND adults that things can change for the better, often when we least expect it.

Amy J. Barry (Mom) lives on the Connecticut shoreline with her husband Tim (Dad) and Buddy B. (a dog!) She is the true-life mother of the now adult Aaron and Ryan. She is an award-winning print journalist, columnist, reviewer, editor, published poet, and author of A Child's Grief Journey— a picture book for bereaved children, endorsed by Education World. Amy is also a certified expressive arts educator, facilitating classes and workshops that help adults and kids tap into their playful, intuitive right-brain creativity.
