Appelt, K. (2008). The underneath. New York, NY: Atheneum Books for Young Readers
A pregnant calico cat is abandoned by the road near the forest. She befriends Ranger, a hound dog who lives chained to a front porch. They become a family and protect each other from Gar Face. The safest place is to hide in the underneath of the home, but once the kittens are born and step out from the underneath their lives change forever. Kathi Appelt reflects the universal truth about friendship, loyalty, and love in this story.
