Overview
A beloved Japanese folktale retold by Lafcadio Hearn and vividly illustrated by artist Anita Kreituse.
A young boy has a singular talent: he's obsessed with drawing cats. Sent away to train as a priest, he holes up at a haunted temple stalked by a ferocious Rat Goblin. Talent and fortitude save the day when the boy's fantastic felines awaken in the night and defend their creator. Evocatively illustrated by Anita Kreituse, the art itself feels magical in this charming fable.
A powerful testament to being yourself and finding your true calling, The Boy Who Drew Cats will delight readers, and art lovers of all ages. Lafcadio Hearn's classic retelling finds a perfect pairing in Kreituse's fabulous and whimsical artwork.
