The bestselling Catwings series! Mrs. Jane Tabby can't explain why her four precious kittens were born with wings, but she's grateful that they are able to use their flying skills to soar away from the dangerous city slums where they were born. However, once the kittens escape the big city, they learn that country life can be just as difficult!

I didn‘t know Ursula Le Guin wrote childrens books. My Libby hold on Earthsea still have not arrived and since this was available, I quickly borrowed it for #AuthorAMonth . It‘s an easy and fun read for early readers with cute and detailed illustrations, about four unusual kittens who were born with wings; and their adventures in the rural areas. Nice read aloud story.

TheSpineView I just bought this book for my granddaughter. Hope she likes it. 2y
kspenmoll I have hung on to this series because my son loved them so much! 2y
tpixie Thanks!! Sounds cute! 2y

erzascarletbookgasm I‘ve been busy ..with many things, except reading 😂. I‘ve finished a couple of books the last 2 weeks or so, but was lazy to review 🙈. All is good, hope you‘re keeping well too. Thanks for thinking of me. ❤️ @CarolynM 1y

I loved this charming, sweet , robust story in miniature. Follow a family of kittens who have wings and make their way in the world. I wanted to read an Ursula Le Guin book for #authoramonth but haven‘t had much luck with her in the past so I thought I‘d try one of her books for young people and this a total hit! I‘ve already downloaded the audio of book 2. And with 35 min recordings, I should be able to read them all this weekend 😄 @Soubhiville

rubyslippersreads @KVanRead Litsy is dangerous, and @LeahBergen is one of the worst enablers. I also found a little brass hand clip on Etsy, which will make its debut in a future post. #blameitonlitsy 😂 4y

Our latest bedtime chapter book was Ursula LeGuin‘s Catwings. I thought it was very sweet and a decent size at only four medium length chapters. I‘ll be picking up the next three books as well as my 4yo enjoyed the “flying cat book”.

rabbitprincess Cute plush kitty! 😊🐱 6y
Smartypants The Wizard of Earthsea was my first fantasy book I ever read. ❤️. 6y
kyraleseberg My daughter and I just read this!! I had to put in a hold for the next from another library and she is getting so impatient! 6y

We were going through old photos at my BF's parents' house this evening, and in one of the boxes was a spiral-bound creative writing assignment the BF did when he was about 7. It was basically Catwings fan fiction -- a new adventure for the kittens! It was hilarious and adorable at the same time 😂😂♥️♥️

Celebrating #WWW a day early to honor Ursula K Leguin getting on the Library of America shortlist. Keep rocking, you saucy lady.
(Also yes, I know Catwings is a weird choice but I loved it as a kid)

prowlix Thanks for the article share! I read Left hand of darkness this year and really loved it. I need to read more of her 8y
Broke_Girl_Reads @prowlix you're welcome! It was one of the articles in my daily email from lit hub, and it also made me add several of her books to my TBR! 8y

Just finished this and it was adorable! Winged kittens born to a life of poverty in the ghetto move on to bigger and better things in the country and finally find a forever home. Loved it!

ReadingRover When I returned the Catwings book to the library I left a gray feather inside in hopes that a child might own it and find it. Maybe they will think it's from one of the Catwings! 8y
MrBook Le Guin is fantastic. Nice touch 😎👍🏻. 8y
ReadingRover Thanks!!! I keep wondering if anyone will find the ones I put inside! 8y
