Once there was a cat who lived all alone. He ate on his own. He slept on his own. He spent every day alone. Poor Cat! The other kitties never ask him to play. He just seems so... grumpy. Then, one night, in a terrible rainstorm, everything changes: Cat hears a plaintive "meow" and finds a drenched little kitten taking shelter between his paws. And no matter what Grumpy Cat does, shes determined to stick by him. Endearing art, expressive characters, and gentle storytelling from Britta Teckentrup (Big Smelly Bear) send children the comforting message that theres a special friend for everyone.
