Ages 4 to 8 years. While Pete the Purple Flying Pig is flying around the world he meets a cat called Kitty from Kathmandu under the Eiffel Tower. She is fluffy white and wears a feathery boa and a floppy hat. They eat frog's legs and snails in a sidewalk cafe. They visit the Louvre and see Mona Lisa smile. Pete tells Kitty he wants her to fly around the world with him and he tries to teach her how to fly...but she can't! She tries, and tries but there's no way a cat called Kitty can fly and she feels very sad because of this. Pete the Purple Flying Pig also feels very sad because he wanted to fly around the world with Kitty, and now he can't. He flies off home and while there Pete the Purple Flying Pig very soon discovers that finding a friend is even better than flying around the world! He rushes back to tell Kitty what he has discovered and finds her staring at the stars and imagining flying around the world with Pete. Suddenly, there's a loud knock at her door -- it was Pete - with a big bunch of flowers! Kitty smiles just like Mona Lisa, and Pete the Purple Flying Pig tells her "I don't give two 'oinks' if you can't fly. I like you just the way you are -- Kitty from Kathmandu!".

Celebrate a year in the life of The Cat Named Carrot, as she goes from humble beginnings in a shelter to a loving home with a family of three adorable little girls and internet stardom. Bailey was certainly no ordinary cat—an orange tabby who gained fans around the world when his humanlike antics went viral. Sadly, when 14-year-old Bailey died, his family grieved their loss.

Written in the voice of Carrot, follow her remarkable journey from shelter cat to top Instagram celebrity feline. Much like Bailey did, she loves spending time with her human family: making mischief with her girl gang; going joyriding in a pint-sized pink Barbie Jeep; doing arts-and-crafts projects; modeling a pink tutu and flowery headband; enjoying a spa day complete with fluffy robe and cucumber eye treatments; celebrating Christmas, Easter, and every holiday in between. It’s no wonder that Carrot’s videos have gone viral—garnering millions of views on Ellen, the Dodo, Good Morning America, Access Hollywood, People, and many more. Complete with four-color photos that will leave readers purring with delight, the journal of this sweet, adorable kitty with personality to spare shows us that the human-animal bond runs more than fur deep. It is love that will last a lifetime!

Most people love cats. They’re fluffy, playful, and can be a joy to have as a companion. However, they can also be huge assholes. So what can you do? How do you deal with a roommate who always seems to be plotting to kill you? While we all love sharing adorable photos of kittens, these frisky felines are known more for marching to the beat of their own drum than abiding by the rules. From running around your home at two in the morning, knocking everything off your shelves, or taking up most of your bed, these furry critters can be immensely selfish and disrespectful to those who give them endless love and affection. Why Cats Are Assholes is up for such a challenge. From studying their history all the way back to ancient Egypt, comedian Liz Miele—the daughter of veterinarians—digests the cat psyche to try and understand why they do the things they do, and how we, as their loyal servants, can handle domestic bliss with them around. With the help of her cat Pasta, Miele breaks down the common behaviors of cats in an attempt to try and better understand their plan of attack (if there is one), as well as what we can do to better prepare ourselves. Whether you have one, two, or twelve fur babies, Why Cats Are Assholes is the ultimate guide to better understanding your pet’s behavior while taking back your home from these domesticated terrorists.
