Despre această carte electronică
ALA Notable Book: A family is adopted by a very talented kitten in this “captivating story, told with . . . whimsical humor” by the beloved Newbery medalist (Chicago Tribune).
The Pyes are spending the summer on Fire Island when they discover a skinny, furious black kitten wearing an unusual sign around her neck. This family has some of the smartest pets around—there’s Ginger the intellectual dog, and Gracie the clever old cat—but the spirited stray named Pinky is more than smart enough to earn a place in the Pyes’ hearts. She can box with Ginger, play games with Mr. Pye, and—Rachel and Jerry can hardly believe their eyes—even type out her life story!
“Told with loving tenderness, whimsical humor, [and] suspense, it has all the special magic that is Eleanor Estes’ trademark. . . . Don’t miss it.” —Chicago Tribune
“All the characters—animal or human—have a high old time . . . That is the appeal of the Pyes—no one of them is quite like anyone else—yet each is believable.” —The New York Times
“Realistic and fantastic, tender and comic, but always absorbing, engaging, and chuckle-producing.” —The Saturday Review of Literature

Despre autor
Eleanor Estes (1906-1988) grew up in West Haven, Connecticut, which she renamed Cranbury for her classic stories about the Moffat and Pye families. A children’s librarian for many years, she launched her writing career with the publication of The Moffats in 1941. Two of her outstanding books about the Moffats—Rufus M. and The Middle Moffat—were awarded Newbery Honors, as was her short novel The Hundred Dresses. She won the Newbery Medal for Ginger Pye.
