Cat and Crow: An Amazing Friendship, is a new, illustrated children’s book that celebrates a world-famous cat and crow friendship. Enjoyed by millions on YouTube and seen on The Oprah Winfrey Show, National Geographic, Animal Planet, Lifetime, and Miracle Pets, the story of Cassie the cat and Moses the crow has captivated the public’s imagination and touched their hearts. Collage Books has released the illustrated children’s book based on this true story. Animal ambassador, Jack Hanna, calls it “an amazing story of two unlikely animals that have been magically brought together in this world.”Drawn from first-hand accounts, Cat and Crow: An Amazing Friendship tells the story of a lonely, stray kitten and the heroic crow that adopted and saved her. Although natural enemies, these two animals became best friends and played every day for four years. Their story carries a hopeful message of friendship and peace. The book also includes educational, fun facts about cats and crows; clippings from newspapers that covered the story; and real-life photographs of these two special animals at play. While the book is designed for children aged 3 and up, adults will love it too.
Cat and Crow: An Amazing Friendship (ISBN 978-0-938728-23-8) is a full-color, 48-page soft-cover book with a retail price of $14.95.

Collage Books Inc. publishes an eclectic selection of topics including theology, biography, self-help, fiction, and children’s literature. Publisher Jeffrey Hirsch expressed his delight with Collage Book’s newest title: “When Lisa first told me about this story, something touched me. The plight of lost, abandoned and feral cats was already on my mind because recently, a tiny kitten had shown up on our doorstep and joined our two older rescued cats in the household. It is my hope that the reader finds enjoyment, enrichment and enlightenment from this amazing story.”
