The Minor Adventures of Mia the Cat - Paperback

by Jay Impellizzeri (Author), Jade Sivan (Illustrator)

Mia, a medium-sized, standard tabby cat, was adopted into a home in Old Santa Fe. She embodies the essence of survival, both for herself and her species. Mia's life, encompassing her house, yard, and beyond, is marked by challenges that she navigates with exemplary instinct and ability, leading to a life of adventure. She learns to deal with various threats, from hawks and owls observed safely from a window, to outdoor dangers like coyotes. Mia treats humans with respect, navigating their world with ease, except in certain situations. Her sanctuary is the adobe casita, with the yard and garden as her domain, and the neighborhood and city as her larger world.
