Publisher's Description of Midnight Cat Family (Calico Critters)
Meet the Midnight Cat Family, a family of black flocked cats with thin tails and pink ears and nose. Includes mother Allison, father James, sister Chantelle and baby brother Reggie.
James the Midnight Cat father is a magician who amazes everyone in the village and town with his exciting shows. He plans his tricks carefully and dresses the part in dapper clothes. James is a child at heart—he dances a jig when he's happy and gives a big shout when he's surprised. Allison the Midnight Cat mother is an amazing fortune teller. Everyone in the village asks her to tell their fortune (with tarot cards) because they know she always gets it right. She has an air of mystery about her, and sometimes when she's telling a fortune, she'll become so lost in her own world that she forgets where she is! Chantelle the Midnight Cat girl loves to collect all kinds of small things. She's excellent at sports and especially loves basketball, but when she grows up she wants to be a magician like her father. Reggie the Midnight Cat baby is full of curiosity and makes everyone chuckle with the questions he asks.
