Five very unusual short stories perfect for making you think and be just a little bit on edge - all by the award-winning Avi. Some are scary, some are funny, but all are tales of transformation. My favorite was about a boy who changes places with a cat. He's bored with school and wants the cats' easy life of napping all day. But what happens when he wants to become himself again and cat doesn't want to be a cat anymore? A wonderful example of 'be careful what you wish for'.
