Mina May and the Great Escape

By Carolyn Philips

Mina May is a fluffy orphaned kitten who is attempting to survive in the big city. Protected by her beloved friend, Dot the dinosaur, Mina May is trying to be the best kitty she can be. But as she is about to discover, it is much harder to keep her gigantic best friend hidden in Central Park than she ever imagined.

After Dot steps in and rescues Mina May from a gang of bully cats, they both notice a strange-looking creature in the tree above them. Curious, Mina May decides to climb up and investigate. Soon, she and Stanley, a genius sloth with a thirst for adventure who has just escaped the zoo, become friends. But when Stanley decides to fulfill his mission of changing the lives of animals in captivity and Mina May is separated from her dinosaur caretaker, their lives and futures hang precariously in the balance. Will they find a way to avoid the humans who want to capture them and reveal their secrets to the world?

Mina May and the Great Escape is the charming tale of an orphaned kitten whose life is turned upside down by a bully, a zoo escape, and a separation from her dinosaur best friend.
