And now I think it's time to share this weeks book.
The Adventures of Phatty and Payaso:
Central Park
Central Park
by
**Furstly I have to let mew all know that I was given a free copy of this book in exchange fur a fair review**
Here's the book blurb:
Phatty the cat loves nothing more than spending his days balanced atop his favorite chair gazing out his windows at Central Park below. Everything is simply fan-tabby-lous until one day when the meanest hawk in the park lands on his terrace and makes a terrifying announcement that he is coming for Phatty and his furry little friends.
* * *
Phatty is a scardy cat, he has more issues than mew can shake your tail at, but his one true furriend and BFF Payaso helps Phatty feel better about himself. Payaso who lives out of town and visits fur only a few months of the year, encourages Phatty to be more, to grow and helps him to find his inner strength and resolve.
On the day of Payaso's arrival, a vishus hawk threatens Phatty's wurld and his furriends, so he furry bravely takes it upon himself to break free of his self-imposed limitations and go out into the real wurld to save the day. The journey he takes brings encounters with many anipals, some who feel dejected and rejected, some who are bullied and some who are just plain lonely and Phatty learns that he is not alone in how he feels and this empowers him further as these new furriends give him the confidence to continue on his impawtant quest.
Guys if I tell mew anymore I'll be giving the plot away and I don't want to spoil this fabulous adventure fur mew, though I will say this; it's a really lovely story and as it unfolds, conveys many subtle lessons to younger readers including kindness and how we should be nice one another regardless of how we look or who we are.
A great book fur all ages and if mew want to read an uplifting book with a touch of sadness, a dash of humour, quite a bit of excitement and a splash of danger then this is definitely fur mew!
