She wanders the woods, chasing squirrels and rabbits and climbing trees. Free-spirited and independent Lillian is a kindred spirit to the many wild cats who gather around the ancient beech tree.

    <body><![CDATA[Much less a Graphic Novel than a sumptuously illustrated short story. The story by Charles de Lint is very good, drawing on many traditional tales and myths. But the real achievement is in the masterful illustrations by Charles Vess. ]]></body>

    <![CDATA[Lillian is an orphan who lives with her aunt on a homestead miles from anyone, surrounded by uncharted forest. She wanders the woods, chasing squirrels and rabbits and climbing trees. Free-spirited and independent Lillian is a kindred spirit to the many wild cats who gather around the ancient beech tree. One day, while she is under the beech, Lillian is bitten by a poisonous snake. The cats refuse to let her die, and use their magic to turn her into one of their own. How she becomes a girl again is a lyrical, original folktale.  <br/><br/>  Set in the countryside north of de Lint's fictional Newford, with some of the same characters as the duo's recent, acclaimed <em>Seven Wild Sisters</em>, <em>A Circle of Cats</em> is the long-awaited first picture book by long-time friends Charles de Lint and Charles Vess, whose masterful art is as magical as the story.  <br/><br/>  Illustrations by Charles Vess.]]>

    <![CDATA[Lillian is an orphan who lives with her aunt on a homestead miles from anyone, surrounded by uncharted forest. She wanders the woods, chasing squirrels and rabbits and climbing trees. Free-spirited and independent Lillian is a kindred spirit to the many wild cats who gather around the ancient beech tree. One day, while she is under the beech, Lillian is bitten by a poisonous snake. The cats refuse to let her die, and use their magic to turn her into one of their own. How she becomes a girl again is a lyrical, original folktale.  <br/><br/>  Set in the countryside north of de Lint's fictional Newford, with some of the same characters as the duo's recent, acclaimed <em>Seven Wild Sisters</em>, <em>A Circle of Cats</em> is the long-awaited first picture book by long-time friends Charles de Lint and Charles Vess, whose masterful art is as magical as the story.  <br/><br/>  Illustrations by Charles Vess.]]>
