Boris

Boris is a big gray cat who loves sleeping and playing and exploring and hunting. And his owner loves him for all of his simple cat ways.

But Boris, typical as he may be, is part of a much larger story in this moving exploration of love, longing, compassion, and most of all, the continuous give-and-take of true friendship.

Newbery medallist Cynthia Rylant's powerful collection of poems will resonate in the hearts of readers of all ages.
