Charleston, SC, Dec. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Author LaShonda M. Stewart comes to parents this week with a great new picture book to help teach children about being yourself.
In Sly The Cool Cat, readers re-enter the bustling city of Catville, where Uncle Floyd finds out his nephew would rather skip school to make some money. Instead of scolding him, Uncle Floyd embarks on the vivid and imaginative story of Sly The Cool Cat, the coolest cat he ever knew.
Uncle Floyd explains how Sly was well-loved by everyone in Catville until an accident turns his life upside down and he has to find a new path in life.
Written for children ages 3 and up, Sly The Cool Cat’s new cast of fun characters teaches young readers what it is to be true to themselves even in the darkest of times. The book is a great addition to the bookshelves of parents, guardians, educators, and mentors.
