Meowry asked me to write about the "Lionboy"
trilogy. Why, you ask? Because Zizou Corder's (that's the nome de plume of a mother and daughter team!) "Lionboy," "Lionboy: The Chase," and "Lionboy: The Truth" are about a young
boy, Charlie Ashanti, who speaks CAT! That's not an acronym. In Charlie's fantastic world, he can actually communicate with all kinds of
cats, not just house cats, but strays who end up helping him, circus lions, wild ones and even prehistoric cats! And the real adventure begins when Charlie finds out that his unique gift is the only thing that can save not only the cats who he can speak to, but those he loves as well. Charlie and his cats take you on a wild-
Lion-ride adventure to Paris, Venice and Africa. And his search to find the truth makes you realize that truly understanding is more important than just knowing things. That's why its one of my, and Meowry's, favorite
books!
Who is Meowry? Well, she's my
CAT, of course.
