When nine year old Mira wakes to a house that feels too quiet, she discovers the unthinkable: her beloved cat, Whiskers, is missing. The last thing Mira remembers is Whiskers purring like a tiny engine beside her pillow; warm, safe, and sure. Now the bed is empty, and the morning air carries a nervous hush.
Mira’s search begins as a simple neighborhood hunt, until a strange clue appears: a trail of soft gray fur snagged on bark, leading toward Old Auntie Suri’s overgrown lane. With her brave (and sometimes goofy) best friend Rafi, a careful plan, and a heart full of worry, Mira follows the clues deeper than she ever expected; into tangled gardens, muddy ditches, and a pocket of woods.
But Whiskers isn’t just lost, he’s stuck, high in a tree where the branches are slick with moss and the trunk is too wide for climbing.
Along the way, Mira learns that being brave doesn’t mean feeling fearless. It means taking one shaky step after another, because someone you love is counting on you.

A children’s storyteller who loves turning everyday moments into big-hearted adventures for young listeners. I write with playful language, gentle humor, and warm characters who learn about friendship, curiosity, and courage. When I’m not writing, I’m collecting little sparks of inspiration; nature sounds, silly questions, and the kind of wonder kids bring to everything.View all audiobooks by Leninagung
