Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Cats are loyal and they're smart too! And now they're banding together to help Charlie, a boy who knows how to speak their language. What do you do when you come home one day and discover that your parents have been kidnapped? Well, if you're a brave young guy named Charlie Ashanti, you go off in search of them. And since you happen to know how to speak Cat, your feline friends — the stray cats of the city and the caged lions on a magnificent, astounding floating circus — rally around you, bringing help, advice, and occasional special deliveries. Little do you know that in this search of yours, the fate of the world is at stake. Sink your claws into the spellbinding tale of Lionboy.
