A Tail of Two Christmases
by Darla Purgason
Illustrated by April Pedersen
Twas the Eve before Christmas
And all through the condo
Not a soul was stirring,
But a kitten named Mambo.
He was prowling and meowing
And licking his fur.
He needed a present—
A gift from him to her.
See, Mambo was rescued
By this kind-hearted soul;
And he wanted to give back
To make his heart whole…
But what gift can a rescue kitty like Mambo give to the angel who brought him in from the cold? Find out in this delightfully-rhyming children’s tale about a prancing kitten, his friend Clancy the dog, and the animal lover who shared her all with them.
