Bodega Cats #3: Pawsome Pals
In the Heights meets Front Desk in the next installment in this heartwarming and funny young illustrated middle-grade series, this time focusing on Little League baseball player Greg whose just broken his leg and might have a thing or two to learn from street cat Amber who was born with only three legs.
Baseball means everything to Greg. Not just because it feels like he’s flying when he hits a homerun, but because baseball keeps him close to his cousins in the DR. This year, he plans on winning the tournament and bringing the trophy with him on his trip. But when an accident at practice benches Greg for the season and dooms him to working at his parent’s bodega, he feels like his world is ending.
For street cat Amber, life has always been about finding the joy in the little things. Like a cozy baby blanket left at the playground. Or a slice of pizza on the sidewalk. But when she spots a human boy whose leg is broken, she’s reminded of what it's like to be scared, and she knows she wants to help, especially since she's missing a leg. But can Amber dare to dream bigger for herself than dumpster leftovers? Can Greg find a way to piece his two worlds, sports and the bodega, together–even if he’s not the star of the game?
