Manning delivers a stunning picture book based on an Irish legend. It is said that during the cat nights of late summer, a witch can turn herself into a cat and back into a witch eight times. But on the ninth time, she remains a cat for good. Full color.

About the Author

Jane Manning's spellbinding picture book takes its inspiration from the tale of the "Cat Nights" of late summer. From this legend comes the saying, "A cat has nine lives."

The artist has illustrated numerous books for children, including the national bestseller The Witch Who Was Afraid of Witches, by Alice Low. Cat Nights is the first book she has both written and illustrated. Jane Manning lives in Deep River, Connecticut.
