About this audiobook
In this warmhearted middle-grade novel, Oona and her brother, Fred, love their cat Zook (short for Zucchini), but Zook is sick. As they conspire to break him out of the vet's office, convinced he can only get better at home with them, Oona tells Fred the story of Zook's previous lives, ranging in style from fairy tale to grand epic to slice of life. Each of Zook's lives has echoes in Oona's own family life, which is going through a transition she's not yet ready to face. Her father died two years ago, and her mother has started a relationship with a man named Dylan-whom Oona secretly calls "the villain." The truth about Dylan, and about Zook's medical condition, drives the drama in this loving family story.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5For cat lovers especially, this story is of Oona, an older sister desperately trying to protect her younger brother from the harsh realities of life, through the inventive telling of whoopers and lies. All the while putting on a brave face instead of grieving over the death of their father, Oona tries to find redemption in the adoption (some would say abduction) of a bb-bullet riddled cat, christened Zook. When Zook suddenly gets sick, can Oona spin a lie that will not only give comfort to her brother, but help save Zook's life?
