Marcie Lewis is devastated when her beloved teacher, Ms. Finney, is fired for refusing to say the Pledge of Allegiance. This classic YA novel, about to celebrate its 30th birthday, is just as fresh and relevant as the day it was published.
Featuring a personal afterword from Paula Danziger describing how and why Cat was written.
Marcy and her classmates have mixed emotions as they face Ms. Finney, their new teacher. (They have driven away her predecessor.) However, Ms. Finney turns out to be different. Her teaching style is unusual, but they enjoy her class, and they are learning. Full Cast Audio enhances this classic. Every character is perfectly realized, conveying the pain, pleasure, and confusion that are prerequisites to growing up. In a moving afterword, the late Paula Danziger shares how she was drawn to write the book. She points out, accurately, that nearly everything is as relevant today as it was in 1974. S.G.B.
