Kitten Construction Company: Meet the House Kittens

John Patrick Green

All Marmalade wants to do is build things.

She is, after all, a trained architect.

She's also a distractingly adorable kitten.

Fed up with not being taken seriously because she's so cute, Marmalade bands together with a handful of other aspiring builders--all of them kittens. But in a world where humans call the shots, can the Kitten Construction Company prove their worth . . . without giving up the very things that make them kittens?

(Don't worry, dear reader, the answer is definitely "yes"!)

About the Author

He lives in a Brooklyn apartment that doesn't allow animals other than the ones living in his head.

"Don't be fooled by the smiling kittens in construction hats adorning the cover--this lighthearted graphic novel doles out an important message about the dangers of judging by appearances." --School Library Journal
