From the author and illustrator of the well-received DEAR WHISKERS, this sweet, funny companion piece deals with identity, family, and change.
It's a purrfect match . . . almost! When Tiger comes meowing at the doorstep, he steals Rana's heart. Unfortunately, her family isn't as excited. They've just moved into a new house, Rana's parents are leaving on vacation, and her grandparents are coming all the way from India to visit. There's no time to take care of a playful pet, especially one whose pesky paws are everywhere -- including her sister's fishbowl! But the kitten looks as lonely as Rana feels in her new school. Both of them could use a friend. Has Tiger caused too much mischief? Or will Rana's parents let him stay?
A stray kitten turns out to be the perfect way to help Rana make friends in her new school and to feel more comfortable with her grandparents, who are visiting from India while her parents are away.

Meow Means Mischief
This is an entertaining story that captures a little girl's feelings about moving, being at a new school, adopting a stray kitty, and her relationship with her grandparents who are staying with her and her sister while their parents are away.
The fact that her parents are of two distinctly different ethnicities lends a touch of modern realism to the story and the conflicting cultures is likely to be understood by many children today.
Our youngest brought this book home from her second-grade class to practice her reading. She read it once or twice on her own and then we read it together. It's a nice tale and I like that Rana expresses her feelings in her journal. This would be a good story to read aloud with children to open up a discussion about crossing cultures as well as to encourage children to keep a journal.
Overall, we liked her character and enjoyed reading this story together. We would certainly like to read more books by this author and I have put what appears to be the sequel to this book, The Perfect Cat-Sitter, on hold at our local library.
