"Okorafor's storytelling is intuitively episodic, blurring the realities of everyday pet life with gleeful fantasy. Ford's sci-fi comic illustrations, rich with cosmic blues, purples, and oranges, bring a dynamic energy to this eccentric escapade. A glowing, flowing, and uniquely imaginative cat story." -- Kirkus "The blending of background colors makes for particularly inviting scenes, especially Periwinkle's lair and the expansiveness of space. Hand this to any feline fans looking to step their toe (paw?) into the sci-fi genre." -- Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books "The graphic novel's neo-impressionist art style imparts a moody, ethereal feel to the feisty feline's free-wheeling space opera." -- Publishers Weekly "[A] whimsical fantasy spinning oddball adventures into an affirmation of loyalty and love." -- Booklist "Periwinkle is a cat after my own heart! He's curious, he loves his family, and he's a stranger in our strange world.

" --Joann Sfar, author of The Rabbi's Cat "Nnedi Okorafor's crazy fun The Space Cat is a witty and imaginative journey that only a true pet owner could create. The lively, expressive artwork by Tana Ford helps make The Space Cat a total delight that lingers beyond the last page." --Peter Ramsey, Academy Award-winning codirector of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
