This cat is the new top dog!



Discover a new, delightful Puppy Tale—with a hilarious twist—from #1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author W. Bruce Cameron. Perfect for middle-grade readers ages 8–12, Piper’s Story is a sassy, heartwarming illustrated chapter book adventure that proves a tiny feline can have a massive personality.

A Feline with a Plan

Piper is a kitten with big goals and an even bigger attitude. She absolutely loves her human girl, Riley, who showers her with non-stop attention and treats her like the absolute queen she is. The problem? Riley lives with some seriously "inferior" creatures—like her smelly brother, Jackson, and his loud, slobbery dog, Tank. Piper decides that Riley’s house is simply not fit for a cat of her royal stature!

Hatching what she thinks is the perfect plan, Piper decides she will escape and scout out a brand-new, perfect home just for her and Riley. But once out in the big world, this brave little kitten quickly learns that "home" isn't just a place you can find that easily—and true family might already be right where she belongs.
