This month, the Catholic Writers’ Guild is touring Elizabeth Fust’s book, “The Hungry Kitten’s Tale.” It is a CWG Seal of Approval recipient! It only takes five loaves of bread, two fish, one cat, and a kind stranger to make a miracle.
Summary:
In The Hungry Kitten’s Tale, follow along with Kit, a hungry kitten looking for some yummy supper, as he goes on an adventure and finds a chance to make friends and be generous. Based on the miracle of the loaves and the fishes by the Sea of Galilee, this story allows children and adults alike to go deeper into Bible history and Scripture. Enjoy Scripture as it comes to life, imagine historical Bethsaida by the Sea of Galilee, and pay special attention to the cats, fisherman, and visitors in this seaside village – including a mysterious visitor named Jesus.
Excerpt:
Many cats lived in the small town of Bethsaida. Some lived with families and caught mice, some lived with important people and lounged on cushions all day, and some wandered the streets with nowhere to go and no food for supper. Kit was one of those cats.
