| | | In this special Passover story, Larnel Moore, a young African-American boy, and Mrs. Katz, an elderly Jewish woman, develop an unusual friendship through their mutual concern for an abandoned cat named Tush. Together they explore the common themes of suffering and triumph in each of their cultures.
Annotation:
Feeling sorry for his elderly, widowed neighbor Mrs. Katz, a boy named Larnel brings her a kitten to help ease her loneliness. Mrs. Katz agrees to keep the kitten only if Larnel promises to help her care for the pet. As they raise the kitten, now named Tush, the Jewish Mrs. Katz and the African-American Larnel develop a lifelong, loving bond and a deep respect for each other's culture. Charcoal and watercolor illustrations accompany the text.
