Book Details

Four cats go on an adventure beyond imagination in hopes of creating a just world.

Ten years after a lab accident changed some cats forever, four unlikely heroes take on an impossible task: travel through time to change the present. Holly, a shy history teacher with a brave heart, joins a genius scientist, a daring young pilot, and an elderly mapmaker on a journey through the past. Their mission is simple but dangerous—learn how acceptance once existed and bring it back. Blending science fiction, humor, and heart, The Catapults explores courage, belonging, and the power of understanding history to build a better world.
