Looking for Love In All The Wrong Places! Tiny City, Big City by Tim Miller


Nothing is so lost as a very small kitten in the big city. The sidewalks are owned by lots of legs, gazillions of feet, all trying to get where they are going. The streets are full of swishy, honky cars, all trying to get where they are going. Speedy kitty dodges among the shoes and crosses streets, hiding from the shrill, clanging firetruck and yowling back at a trio of barking dogs, pulling at their leashes.

He climbs on top of one of the library lions, eluding the dogs.

BRAVE KITTY.

Between one stone lion's sun-warmed paws, he takes a catnap.

But even brave kitties get hungry, and a fishmonger makes him a lunch of sardines. Kitty chases the pigeons, who scold him for interrupting their lunches on the sidewalk, until snow begins to fall. As the sidewalks turn white with a light snow, the sun sets, and the kitty sits down with the people listening to a street jazz band play.

SINGING KITTY

The crowd applauds the kitty, and as one boy strokes his head, he purrs.

And soon there's a kind family with one newly contented calico kitty, in Tim Miller's loving story of a formerly homeless kitty with a new home, Tiny Kitty, Big City (Balzer and Bray, 2021). Miller's simple, childlike blackline illustrations appear spot-art style on otherwise white pages, or fill colorful double-page spreads with Where's Waldo-type crowd scenes, where savvy kids will spot the boy who finally takes Kitty home. In a celebration of the sights and sounds of city life, author-illustrator Miller's brief text and beautifully simple illustrations tell the old story of a lost and found kitten, a tiny creature who finds loving care in the midst of the busy city. Says School Library Journal, "This clever book will appeal to all children, as adventure, beginning reader, or even as an inviting cityscape to pore over."
