The Mayor’s Missing Cat is the first book in the new Tango and Tilly early novel series by Jan Mader. When Tilly learns that the mayor will offer a tasty reward (free donuts for a year) for finding his cat, she sets off with her horse Tango on a town-wide search to find the feline. Tilly’s horse is named after the author’s horse which she rescued from an animal auction. Isabelle Charbonneau’s spot art accompanies this simply told but likeable story. mRb
