Luna's brother is one of thousands of Fae who have been missing on the mortal side of the Veil for years. Though all of Luna's efforts to open the main crossings between Faerie and the mortal world have failed, she has figured out a way to open a tiny wandering Veil, just long enough for her to cross over, find her brother and bring him home again. Unfortunately, right as she's about to launch her admittedly somewhat risky plan, the overbearing Tarek shows up, demanding she include him in everything. Even worse? It turns out he's her mate.
*"This amusing picture book is fun for reading aloud." --Booklist (starred review) From Pete Oswald, New York Times bestselling illustrator of the Bad Seed series, and Tara Lazar, critically acclaimed author of 7 Ate 9, comes Flat Cat, the story of a cool cat who learns that sometimes life is about finding the best of both worlds. "Whimsy, wonder, and wacky humor in just the right proportions." --GeekMom Flat Cat was born flat. He wasn't squashed by an out-of-control ice cream truck, or smushed in a waffle iron. He was just flat. This slick, sly cat could stray and roam anywhere he pleased, keen and unseen. And wouldn't you know it, Flat Cat liked it just like that. That is until one day, when Flat Cat accidentally fell splish splosh right in the wash. And when he emerged from the dryer, Flat Cat wasn't flat at all. He was adorably puffy and downright fluffy! And Flat Cat wasn’t sure how he felt about that. From acclaimed author Tara Lazar and brought to life by #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Pete Oswald, this is a hilariously quirky and irreverent story that is sure to appeal to fans of Pete the Cat! Praise for Flat Cat: "Lazar’s wryly humorous tale won’t leave young audiences flat, while Oswald’s purple-tinged cartoon depictions of this Flat Stanley–style feline add their share of giggles (as usual). A hilarious reminder that versatility will have you feline fine." --Kirkus reviews "Featuring groovy text, it’s a Flat Stanley-flavored take on rolling with the punches and fluidly embracing newfound facets and friends." --Publishers Weekly "Perfect for cat lovers who wonder how their feline escape artists seemingly walk through doors." --BCCB
