Line Break

Pasha and Poop are cats who were adopted from a pet shelter by the Wilde family. They've barely settled in when they get a visit from Scaredy Cat, a wicked ghost that rules the neighborhood cats. Scaredy Cat's threat: Do what I say, or it's back to the shelter for you! But if this bully thinks Pasha and Poop are going to follow his rules like the other cats do, he’ll have to think again. Readers who have cats will appreciate the feline personalities of all the characters in the book. Pasha is fearless, while Poop is a true fraidy-cat. If you love a mystery with a good dose of humor, you’ll definitely enjoy Scaredy Cat, by James Patterson and Chris Grabenstein.
