Source: NetGalleyMeet Baker and Taylor, two cat buddies (opposite in every way) who are about to leave the comfort of their cozy public library reading nook to embark on one epic literary road trip! After spending most of their time reading in the library, Baker and Taylor are encouraged by their friend Flora to get out and see the world.
Their first stop? New York City. There, Flora tells them, they’ll meet another pair of cat besties eager to share their library—the 42nd Street branch of the New York Public Library —with them. After they arrive in the city, Baker and Taylor are excited to meet these library cats but can’t seem to find them anywhere!
With the help of Baker’s trusty guidebook, Taylor’s sense of adventure, and guidance from New York City’s own, these two book-loving cats are about to solve one big mystery and learn some cool things along the way.
This is the first title in a newly independent reader series that combines fun storylines featuring two bookish cats, with factoids throughout to create an immersive reading experience for bibliophiles, cat-lovers, and learners of regional history and culture alike.
Includes backmatter on New York Public Library and different New York City landmarks.

My thoughts on Baker and Taylor The Mystery of the Library Cats
Baker and Taylor, two adorable cats that reside at their local library, hear of two cats at the New York Public library. They simply must visit this library and meet their fellow bookish cats.
Along the way, they travel by train and subway, seeing great sites…and lots of legs!
I loved the interplay between these two completely opposite cats. It demonstrates people can be different from each other and still be best friends.
Baker is quite studious and brings along his guidebook to New York City. He loves to drop little tidbits of information for the reader. I’ve never been to NYC and appreciated these fun facts. The author also includes a guide to the New York Public Library and a sheet of landmarks in the area.
Taylor is the more adventurous of the two friends and loves slipping off to find a snack.
In their travels, they meet other talking animals and statues before they find the two famous cats that guard the entrance to the library.
The book is beautifully illustrated by Weaverbird Interactive and published by PawPrints Publishing.
I highly recommend this delightful tale to readers of all ages. Early readers may need a bit of help with reading Baker’s guidebook. I know I learned a lot from this book and can’t wait to read it with my grandchildren.
I received a digital advance reader copy from #NetGalley and #pawPrintPublishing. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
