As a girl, TJ longed for a cat but allergies got in the way. In spite of it, the universe conspired for a cat to find her. In 72 full-color illustrations, this graphic memoir tells the story of a nomadic artist and her relationship with the adorable cat “Chicken” who stays by her side for 17 years spanning four cities (Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Pittsburgh). Chicken’s tale ranges from funny to emotional, sweet to silly, thoughtful to mystical and includes bonus fun facts about cats and their habits.
Double Gold Winner in the 2016 Global E-book Awards for Best Children’s Nonfiction and Best Pet Nonfiction, Chicken is a soulful expression of the love between cat and person as it collides with the powerful tide of family, friends, loss, and the invisible forces that connect us.
