"Woogie is a
good luck cat." Through colorful illustrations done by Paul Lee
Children's eyes brighten with every turn of the page. Having watched
the author read this book to Kindergarteners through 5th graders I can see
that the children (and teachers) are captivated with the adventures of
Woogies nine lives. Written for her grandchild Joy has done a wonderful
job authoring her first book for children. I personally hope to see
many more great children's stories come from Joy. Marlette
