All Cats Welcome

by Susin Nielsen, Vivian Mineker (Illustrator)

Overview

In this sweet and affirming picture book, two cats discover they don’t need to share a language to become friends.

Leonard adores his human. “Stay! Let’s play!” he says when it’s time to leave for work. His human just hears “Meow.”

Sometimes Leonard gets lonely. So does Mariposa, who is new in town. Maybe they could keep each other company? “Hello,” says Leonard. “Hola,” says Mariposa.

While the friends don’t share a language, they do share adventures. And together they find a place where all cats—and their humans—are welcome.
