Publisher Description: Fall in love with the second installment in the Ava and Pip series, perfect for the young cat lover in your life. Written as short diary entries, this quick, heartwarming read follows 11 year old Ava as she learns patience and persistence are all part of growing up.

But when Taco joins the family, he doesn't snuggle or purr--all he does is hide. Worse, Ava's best friend starts hanging out with Zara, a new girl in fifth grade.

And what about sweet, scared little Taco? Ava and Taco Cat is perfect for: |
