Courtyard Cat

By C.S. Adler

Book Overview

Eleven-year-old Lindsay is miserable when her family moves from the country to a small northeastern city. But she thinks that's only fair: she blames herself for her little brother Garth's injury, which requires special, expensive treatment in the city. Helping her new neighbors protect a cat she finds in the apartment-house courtyard, Lindsay discovers that true friends don't have to be your age or look like you. In the process, she's also forced to confront her feelings of guilt about Garth's accident.
