| book description |

Life for a cat doesn’t get much better than Periwinkle’s. By day, his loving humans treat him with scritches, cuddles, and delicious chicken fillets. And by night, he races through outer space in a custom-built spaceship, exploring the cosmos. You see, Periwinkle doesn’t just look like an alien, with his bat-like ears and huge blue eyes - he is one. When his humans move to the small but bustling town of Kaleria, Nigeria, Periwinkle can tell something is about the place is off. Every day, strange blue plants have been sprouting up all across town, and the humans are acting weirder and weirder. Soon enough, it looks like Periwinkle’s most epic adventure yet might happen right here on earth. Nnedi Okorafor's groundbreaking books masterfully blend African culture and science fiction. The Space Cat is her foray into children;s graphic novels, and it promises to be as imaginative and lyrical as her other celebrated works.
