The Rainbow Cat is not in the least like any cat you have ever seen. You see, it is a fairy cat, so it rather had to be different. It’s outward appearance is simply magical, if not somewhat unusual. You see it had a violet nose, indigo eyes, pale blue ears, green front legs, a yellow body, orange back legs and a red tail. In fact, it was coloured with all the colours of the rainbow, and so was known as the Rainbow Cat. Of course, it had to live in Fairyland (well where else would you find a Rainbow Cat?) and it had all sorts of really strange adventures. In this book I am going to tell you some of them, and I think you will agree that it really had a very exciting and breathtaking time. What were these adventures you ask? Well, you will have to download this book and find out for yourself! ------- Rose Amy Fyleman (1877-1957) was an English writer and poet, noted for her works on the fairy folk, for children. =================== KEYWORDS/TAGS: The Rainbow cat, adventures, baker, banquet, beautiful, bottom, bramble-bush, castle, Cat, Chief, children, daughter, fairies, fairy, Fairy Giant, Fairyland, flowers, frightened, gentleman, giant, giantess, gold, golden, Golden-bright, hawthorn, King, kingdom, ladies, laughter, magic horse, magic moon, mandolin, Marigold, marriage, Mellidora, palace, prince, Princess, Queen, Rainbow, river, Rondel, schoolmaster, silver, sunshine, Tree-goblins, valley, wicked witch, wife, wizard, rose fyleman, magical

Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
From the author of the New York Times bestselling Oh My Dog comes the true story of Yoda, a very special cat—and adorable Instagram sensation—rescued by Beth and Howard Stern. When Beth first met Yoda at the animal shelter, he was skinny and his fur was matted. He hid in the back of his cage and wanted nothing to do with anyone. But Beth chose Yoda. She took him home, cleaned him up, and gave him love. Beth fosters kittens, too, and before long Yoda discovered them—and his life purpose. Now he’s happy, and fluffy, and very, very busy. He makes sure the orphan kittens eat, he keeps them safe, and he even cleans up after them. Yoda acts like a father and mother to the foster kittens that fill his home, and taking care of others has helped him too: even though Yoda has a serious heart condition, he’s made a miraculous turnaround, and is healthier than doctors thought he could be. To further the important work that Beth does on behalf of animals, all of her proceeds from this book will be donated to North Shore Animal League America’s Bianca’s Furry Friends campaign.
