Publisher's Synopsis

Caldecott Honoree Elisha Cooper returns with a unique and playful tale about an imaginative house cat who dreams of all the wild things it can be.

The imagination of one housecat takes him to unexpected adventures as he dreams of spreading his wings as a "Rare Bird".

A Rare Bird can do anything!
Fly fast through the forest,
or splash in the bird baths,
or meet animals from faraway lands.....

Readers will fall head over heels for this extraordinary tale of dreaming, the power of imagination, and the freedom of creativity.
