In this paneled picture book, join a small girl on her hilarious and surprising search for her lost cat--and watch as she helps her neighbors, who have also lost their pets, along the way!

Where, oh where is Kitty? She's not upstairs... not in her litter box... not at her food bowl. Hmm...There's only one thing to do: find this lost cat.

As the cat's owner roams town in hopes of finding her pet, she discovers she's not the only one missing their beloved animal. There's also a lost dog...a lost bird...even a lost giraffe!

Join the search party in this almost wordless story that celebrates helping our neighbors and gently reminds us that what is lost can always be found.
★ "This zippy panel-style tale in the creator’s shape-based aesthetic brims with eclectic characters as well as good vibes about connection and caring in a universe where all’s well that ends well." —Publishers Weekly, starred review

"A satisfying tale conveyed solely—and adroitly—through images." —Kirkus Reviews

"Staake brings empathy, camaraderie, and humor to a familiar experience in this wordless picture book." —The Horn Book

"A triumphant celebration that will please animal-loving readers." —The Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books
Bob Staake's 2006 Golden Book The Red Lemon was a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book of the Year.

In addition to his work with Random House, Bob's titles include Mary Had a Little Lamp (Bloomsbury), Look! A Book! (Little Brown), and Cars, Galore (Candlewick). Outside of his work in children's publishing, Bob's illustrations have also been seen on several popular New Yorker covers, including the 11/17/08 "Reflection" cover that is officially the most popular New Yorker cover of all time. In 2008, Bob was the recipient of Time magazine's 2008 Best Magazine Cover award. View titles by Bob Staake
