The Cat Who Hated Back to School

Summer's over, and Willowmere Lane is bracing for the back-to-school season. But when a massive magical storm rolls in from the forest and traps Shadow, Bandit, one particularly nutty squirrel, Maya, Riley, Eli, and Mrs. Jinglebright inside Mrs. Graves' old Victorian Gothic farmhouse, school supplies become the least of anyone's worries. The house has secrets. The rooms shift. The walls whisper. And the basement furnace—never one to miss a dramatic moment—starts sending poetic clues about how to escape. Shadow must navigate enchanted hallways, negotiate with a magical rug that demands politeness, and work with the most chaotic crew on the street to find their way out before the storm swallows the house whole.
