Feb. 23, 2012 - PRLog -- Author, Cristine Caton, along with her cousin and illustrator, Judy Drmacich Ryan, is excited about the release of the second book in their Cefa the Cat series of Children’s Picture Books. Book #2 is titled "The Adventures of Cefa the Cat, Cefa Meets His First Friend".

In book 1, "Cefa Finds a Home", you learned that a Russian Blue cat named Cefa (SEE-FA) is adopted from the animal shelter by Drugu and taken home.  Cefa loves his new home and he especially loves his new yard.  You read about Cefa’s first adventure in his new backyard.

In book 2, “Cefa Meets His First Friend”, Drugu takes Cefa into the front yard.  Cefa loves watching all the people go by the yard and he especially likes it when they pet him.  Suddenly, Cefa notices a flash go by.   Something just ran into the garage.  What is it?  Who is it?  Cefa slowly creeps into the garage to find out.  Read about who Cefa finds in his garage.  Find out what happens when they first meet.  Learn how they become best friends.

"The Adventures of Cefa the Cat, Cefa Meets His First Friend" is an easy read for the young elementary student or for the parent who wants a good bedtime story for their little one. The illustrations are animated, cute and very colorful.  Although this book was not design to promote a specific lesson, parents and teachers can draw several messages from it to discuss with the children.   Cristine also included several puzzle/coloring pages in the back of the book for the children to complete.

This series is based on the adventures, or misadventures as some will find, of the Caton’s Russian Blue cat.  He was a very active cat with a lot of character.  He would roam around the yard and eventually found himself in various situations.  It was fun to watch as he tried to decide just how he was going to find a way out.  This adventure was especially funny as you will find out when you read what happens.  And, it actually did happen!  Cristine used these situations as the basis of her stories and added conversations to make it more interesting for the little ones.

"The Adventures of Cefa the Cat" is internet collaboration in the true sense of the word.  Pictures were sent via email and put into a graphics program for finishing touches.  After much writing and editing, drawing and redrawing, changing and rearranging the final product was uploaded to the print-on-demand website, Create Space, and is now available.

"The Adventures of Cefa the Cat, Cefa Finds a Home" ISBN # 978 1469968421 is now available online at Cefa's own website at http://www.cefathecat.com.  If you order Cefa’s adventures from his website Cefa will send you some extra puzzle/coloring pages as a special Thank You.  When you visit Cefa website you will also be able to order other Cefa products featuring Cefa and your own children.  Check it out!
