May 31, 2012 - PRLog -- The Adventures of Cefa the Cat is a series of 6 children’s picture books featuring a Russian Blue cat named Cefa.  They are 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 these books were not design to promote a specific lesson, parents and teachers can draw several messages from them to discuss with the children.   Along with each story there are several puzzle/coloring pages at the end of each book.

In book #1, Cefa Finds a Home, you learned that Cefa (SEE-FA) is adopted from the animal shelter by a nice man.  The man, Drugu which means friend in Russian, takes Cefa home.   In the first book Cefa explores his new home.  He goes into all the rooms inside his new home and then Drugu takes him outside.  This is Cefa’s first experience outside and he finds himself in a very sticky situation.  Find out what happens to Cefa and who comes to his rescue.

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.

Watch for book #3 will be coming out in the fall.

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 online.
