A new-school diary with a feline twist

Catty is a second grader who is half-human and half-cat, like her mother and grandmother. Starting at a new school brings some rough patches, and she uses her “scratch pad” diary to record her adventures and sort through big feelings. The diary has an unusual role, too: sometimes it writes back with advice. That setup connects Catty’s school experiences with a family trait and a touch of fantasy, while the story follows her as she makes friends and grows more comfortable in her new surroundings.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children who enjoy chapter books about school, friendship, and adjusting to a new place
  • Young readers interested in animal-human characters and a diary with a fantastical twist

Book overview

Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin', brings her signature warm positivity and message of empowerment to her chapter book debut: a series about a big-hearted girl who is half-human, half-cat.

Introducing Catty!

She's a confident second grader who happens to be half-cat, like her mother and grandmother. In this series debut, Catty hits a few rough patches at her new school. So she turns to her fuzzy diary--AKA her "scratch pad"--where she shares her big feelings and documents her adventures. Luckily for Catty, this special diary sometimes writes back with helpful advice. Before long, Catty is making friends and learning to love her new school.

Catty Corner is the natural next read for fans of character-driven chapter books like Junie B. Jones, Ivy & Bean, and Judy Moody.
