Very Good • Ex-Library Copy • Illustrated Hardcover • Charming Cat Fantasy Catlantis by Anna Starobinets, translated by Jane Bugaeva, with illustrations by Andrzej Klimowski. Published by NYR Children’s Collection in 2016. Hardcover. ISBN: 9781681370002. Baguette seems like an ordinary house cat, but he is descended from the magical Catlanteans, who once lived on the legendary island of Catlantis. When he falls for the alluring alley cat Purriana, she challenges him to perform a heroic deed before she will agree to marry him. A visit to an oracle reveals his extraordinary feline heritage and the secret of his ginger ancestors: the ability to travel through time! Baguette must journey into the past to find the Catlantic flowers that could restore nine lives to cats everywhere. This imaginative, humorous adventure blends feline fantasy, folklore, magic, and a delightfully unusual quest. Illustrated by Andrzej Klimowski, the book has a distinctive visual style that adds to its charm. Condition: Attractive hardcover in very good overall condition, with a clean, nearly new-looking appearance. This is a former library copy, with protective tape on the spine and a library card in the rear pocket. The book appears not to have circulated, although the library materials remain. No dust jacket is present. A charming choice for young readers who love cats, magical adventures, folklore, and imaginative fantasy. Also suitable for homeschooling families seeking supplementary reading in fantasy literature, storytelling, folklore, and creative writing. Recommended for ages 8–12, approximately grades 3–7. …
