Who’s That in the Cat Pajamas? (The Dolcey Series Book 1) by Soujourner McConnell – Book Review

The recent book release of Who’s That in the Cat Pajamas (The Dolcey Series Book 1) by Soujourner McConnell is the delightful story of a young girl’s struggle with the real world problem of leaving everything behind. She must move to a new town with her parents, and she is none too happy about it. A pajama-clad kitty with a secret surprise helps pave the way for our young heroine. Together, they explore what life might be like in new surroundings.

Children of all ages will be immersed into thought-provoking prose that carries the imagination to soaring, new heights. The love with which Soujourner McConnell wrote this book is evident from page one. Dolcey is magical and possesses special senses deftly tuned toward children in need of a little extra guidance. She finds such a child when she seeks out Emily. Dolcey’s tender caring leads Emily in a direction she is unsure she wants to see. But what awaits them is both revealing and tender and will leave you wanting more adventures from Dolcey.

Who’s That in the Cat Pajamas is a 5-star read and should reside among other classics on your children’s bookshelf. To get your copy today,  visit Amazon for a free Kindle Unlimited version or just $1.99 for your very own e-copy.
