In this new edition of Clare Turlay Newberry’s 1943 Caldecott-winning classic, Oliver the cat lives with his loving owner Miss Tilly, in an apartment sheltered from the rest of the world. His days are a comfortable routine: regular naps, getting fed when he is hungry, and all he wants is peace and quiet. But when Miss Tilly brings home a surprise—a tiny, white-furred, pink-eyed, twitchy-whiskered bunny named Marshmallow—nothing can prepare him for the surprises in store.
Just in time for Easter promotion, this heartwarming tale reminds readers that families come in all different shapes and sizes—and that the unexpected is what makes life worth living.
