Sadie, the Story Lady

Thanksgiving is a time for warmth, togetherness, and… apparently, one very hungry cat. In Meatball’s Adventurous Appetite: A Pet Cat’s Thanksgiving, written by Dr Fei Zheng-Ward, young readers follow the holiday hijinks of Meatball, a chubby, mischievous cat whose love for food gets him into more trouble than he expects. 🦃

If you remember Meatball from his Halloween story, you already know he’s a feline with a BIG personality. 🐱 On Thanksgiving Eve, the delicious smells drifting from the kitchen are simply irresistible—especially the turkey! Before you know it, Meatball’s curiosity sets off a hilarious chain of giggles, surprises, and unexpected twists that will keep kids smiling and guessing what happens next.
