Katie the Catsitter 2: Best Friends for Never

(A Graphic Novel)

Illustrated by Stephanie Yue
It’s back to school for Katie the Catsitter in the second book of a purr-fectly irresistible, bestselling graphic novel series about friendship, superheroes, and cats—lots of cats!

“Readers will revel in the heroic antics.”—The New York Times

“Ideal for readers seeking the whimsy of Dav Pilkey’s 'Dog Man' tempered with the reassuring tone of Raina Telgemeier’s work.”—School Library Journal

Katie had a great summer in New York City skateboarding with her skate crew, and loves the fact that she’s officially a superhero sidekick. But now that school is starting up again, everything is changing. For starters, the Mousetress is getting blamed for things Katie knows she didn’t do. And sidekick training is NOT as exciting as she’d hoped. In addition to the stress of her side gig, Katie’s best friend Beth is back in town, and Beth’s new boyfriend is always hanging around (ugh!). Not to mention that all of Katie’s friends are mad at her. Fixing this will be harder than any skateboarding trick. But with the help of 217 slightly out of the ordinary cats, Katie’s going to try!

Can she clear the Mousestress’s name, uncover the real supervillain in town, and become the sidekick (and the friend) she’s always dreamed of being? Some heroes have capes . . . Katie has cats!

With charming illustrations and laugh-out-loud humor, this feline-friendly adventure series shows how, with the right catitude, anything is pawsible!
