Capitol Kitty, Capitol Kids

Linda Burton posting from Sacramento, California — “The Adventures of Capitol Kitty, an Almost True Story” (ISBN 0-439-45069-1, Scholastic, 2002) is a cats-eye view of how state government really works. Sharon Davis wrote the book during the time she was First Lady of California, about a real cat who lived just outside her office. She created a delightful tale to help young people get a sense of who works at the capitol. Proceeds from the sale of the book go towards the Governor’s Book Fund, a non-profit program established to provide grants to California schools for the purchase of library books.
