The Girl with the Cat:
The story centers around nine-year-old Caroline Markham who visits the local art gallery and makes an extraordinary discovery. In one corner there is something even more compelling than the paintings. It’s a sculpture of a girl named Nina with a cat named Sammy on her lap, sitting in a rocking chair. It’s truly beautiful, but as Caroline soon discovers, the sculpture will not be there for long.
Saskatoon based author, Beverley Brenna has shared the inspiring story of one girl’s successful fight to keep the sculpture in Saskatoon’s famous Mendel Gallery, rallying an entire city to her side. Illustrations by the inimitable Brooke Kerrigan catch the magic of this important true story and remind us of the power of art.
