The Life of Riley - Hardcover

by Deborah K. Perdue (Author)

It was a long time ago-but it seems like yesterday-that a scruffy orange cat followed the sound of laughter all the way to the library.

He didn't mean to cause a stir. He only wanted to see what made everyone so happy.

But there was a sign on the door: NO PETS ALLOWED.

Still, the cat sat and waited... until the people noticed him.

They brought him snacks. They gave him a name-Riley.

The mayor said no, the town wrote letters.

When the unexpected happened, the answer was clear: Riley found a job-and his home.

This is the tale of how one curious cat and a caring community proved that a library is more than books and rules.

It's a place for everyone-and always has room for one more story.
