On the Night of the Comet — Lena Coakley

On the night of the comet, when cats can talk, three large cats stop by Peterís house on their way to the mountains to ask the Great Cat their questions. The plants in Peterís parentsí room are dead. His father sleeps on the couch. And Peter is very, very sad. With her tail long enough to wrap Peter up from head to toe, the great white snow leopard tries to help. She may not be able to answer Peterís questions, but perhaps she can give him a way to say goodbye.
