      A band of feral cats lives off Interstate 95 in the woods outside Potterberg. It's a cat-eat-cat life, with every feline selfishly fighting for its own existence. Things change when three kittens, abandoned on the median strip, miraculously, navigate the busy highway to join the feral cat community, bringing with them a magical belief in the possibility of a more compassionate community. James Jenner brings Janet Taylor Lisle's fantasy to life, employing a serious tone that makes the tale believable. His voice imbues each cat with a unique personality. You'll root for the feral cats as the kittens inspire them to work together to save their woodland home from developers who would sacrifice the woods and its inhabitants for one more highway. N.E.M.
