About this title

Synopsis:

In this 1964 Newbery Award winner, 14-year-old Dave has the usual problems luckily, he has an adopted stray named Cat to help him through the bumps and bruises. Recounted with humor, a remarkably realistic teenage voice, and Emil Weiss's pitch perfect illustrations, Dave's story unfolds amid the excitement and dangers of 1960s New York City. Superb. The best junior novel I've ever read about big-city life. The New York Times.

Review:

"This is superb -- the best junior novel I've ever read about big-city life."--" New York Times""Different, humorous, with a touch of the vernacular, and a great feeling for the city and its many peoples."--" Saturday Review""A fine, honest, flavorful tale." --" Chicago Tribune
