For the Love of Autumn

(4) K-3 After her cat disappears during a storm, Danielle is heartsick. Six weeks later, Autumn returns, obviously well cared for. Who's the mystery person who watched over Autumn? With her distinctive homey illustrations, Polacco weaves a warm love story between a woman, her cat, and the man who rescued Autumn (though the sentimental tale will likely resonate most with adults).
