Price Evans doesn’t know that his family’s new property connects to Tolk—a land where the animals talk, and where humans are almost mythical beings to the fairies, giants, dwarfs, and other creatures who live there. His neighbor’s wily cat, Sinbad, has taken up residence in both worlds, and is devising a plan to bring humans into Tolk. Knowing that evil and corruption will follow, the desperate Tolks summon Price, an outsider, to help them save their vulnerable world.

Over the years, Lesley Renton has enjoyed working with hundreds of youth, from school age to young adult, and believes strongly in their innate desire and ability to make good choices and succeed in life.

“My aim is to create stories that are both captivating and empowering,” she says. “In “Cat Between Two Worlds” there are no magical solutions to problems. The main character resolves conflict using his wit and ingenuity. At the same time, he must rely on the contributions of all, right down to the smallest person.

“As a mother, reading with my two children was part of the family adventure. Even into their teens, we were exploring together many wonderful books. These were warm, comfortable times, close to the heart. It’s my hope that this story will inspire in its readers that same sense of wonder, adventure, and inclusion.”

Lesley and her husband, Bruce, live in Calgary Alberta, where she teaches private piano lessons at a performing arts school.
