In Japan, cats with crooked tales are signs of good fortune. Follow one such cat & his owner on a road trip to visit three longtime friends in
The Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa. Join the members of Books on Tap, a book club that seeks out the unbeaten path. No celebrity lists, no high-profile awards, but plenty of adventure, excitement, & reflection. In May, we travel along with Nana, a cat with a crooked tail, & his owner, Satoru. As they trek across Japan, their experiences "speak volumes about our need for connection--human, feline, or otherwise" (San Francisco Chronicle).
