What would you say if you saw a mountain lion in your local park?
This imaginative adventure is inspired by the true story of P-22, the world-famous mountain lion who made his home in Griffith Park in the heart of Los Angeles.
Born in the Santa Monica Mountains, P-22 grows up learning to hunt with his mother and brother, surrounded by the wildlife of Southern California. But space is limited, and danger is never far-especially from Prime, the dominant male who threatens his survival. After a close encounter, P-22 must leave his home and journey east in search of a territory of his own.
Along the way, he makes quirky new friends, crosses two major freeways-the 405 and the 101-and navigates the challenges of living alongside humans. Rat poison, traffic, and urban dangers put him at constant risk, but P-22's determination leads him to the green oasis of Griffith Park.
Filled with charm, heart, and gentle humour, The Cat That Changed America uses pen-and-ink illustrations and imaginative storytelling to bring P-22's world to life. Complete with conservation messages, real-life facts, and further reading about wildlife protection and the historic 101 wildlife bridge project, this book inspires young readers to care about nature and the animals who share our cities.
