About this ebook
Beloved author Katherine Applegate proves in unexpected ways that friends matter, whether real or imaginary, in this free chapter sampler of Crenshaw.
Jackson and his family have fallen on hard times. There's no more money for rent. And not much for food, either. His parents, his little sister, and their dog may have to live in their minivan. Again.
Crenshaw is a cat. He's large, he's outspoken, and he's imaginary. He has come back into Jackson's life to help him. But is an imaginary friend enough to save this family from losing everything?
