Princess Caddy Finds a Home

Princess Caddy Finds a Home tells the adventure of a small cat named Caddy, who searches for a home and people to love her.

As a speech pathologist for many years, it has been the author’s experience that using animals to teach articulation and language skills is highly successful. This story promotes vocabulary development (over 100 words from simple to complex), basic concepts, and answering who, what, where, when, and why questions.

Not only is Princess Caddy Finds a Home educational, it’s entertaining and funny as well!
