About the Book
Big Mama has a family
of active cubs to raise, even as a new threat emerges. Twelve-year-old Tracy
has places to explore, things to discover, and her first 5K race to run. Aunt
Lynette, Mallory, and Jamie provide guidance, love, and support, helping Tracy
to thrive. And Tracy's wonderful friend, Kitty, is there watching over them
all. A Place to Grow picks up where A Place For You left off and
will leave readers cheering for this uniquely blended family of humans and
cats! A Place to Grow is joyful, appealing to cat lovers, and empowering
for girls.
My Review
The second book in this
series can be read as a standalone. This sweet story explores how a young girl
is adapting to her new life in her great-aunt’s home. Aunt Lynette has a
wonderful neighbor, artist Mallory, whose boyfriend, Jamie, is a game warden
who also runs amateur races. Together, these four learn and grow with each
other, along with a pet rescue kitten, and a local mountain lion mama raising
her cubs. As the author says, this series blends a wonderful group of people
and critters into a unique blended family. Set in lovely Wisconsin, Tracy is determined
to learn more about her environment with Jamie’s help and encouragement, training
and running in race events with the support of everyone, developing
observational, gardening, and artistic skills with Mallory, and a love of
cooking and sense of kindness and responsibility from Aunt Lynette.
There’s a bear
involved, too, but you’ll want to read about that for yourself.
Recommended for the tween set girl, though any reader would enjoy this series.
