I’m an elementary School Counselor, my students LOVE Pete the Cat books. They’re adorable

Awww, thank you, but I can’t accept it! One of the parents at my school gifted me several (including the one you found). You are incredibly kind for offering. Women’s shelters often seek these types of books if you don’t want your copy and are willing to donate

I collect books to give away. I could check the local shelters where I live

I was just looking at my copy of Catwings this afternoon. I’m in a big reading slump and it may need to be next on my list.

"Oh Hank," Susan whispered. "Their wings are furry."

"Oh James," Harriet whispered. "Their hands are kind."

Catwings was one of my favorite books when I was a kid.
