Meet Pippin: an adventurous witch's cat trying to find his place in the world.\n\n\nPippin has always been a witch's cat. But he can't stop thinking of all the alternatives. There are so many possibilities! If he could be any kind of cat, WHICH kind of cat would he be?\n\n\nSetting out boldly by the light of the moon, Pippin tries out the life of a pirate's cat (too much water!), a knight's cat (too many dragons!) and a pet cat (too many ribbons!). Nothing feels quite right . . . until Pippin works out that just maybe, the answer has been there all along. Can he find his way back home in time for Halloween?\n\n\nWith illustrations by the award-winning Laura Hughes, this is a charming, delightfully rhyming story about finding where you belong - perfect for Halloween!
