Catherine Phillips is the author of Callie the Calico Kitten: The Beginning, a heartwarming children’s story about courage, kindness, friendship, and discovering that being different can be a wonderful gift.

Through Callie’s adventures on the farm, Catherine brings young readers into a world filled with lovable animals, exciting moments, unexpected challenges, and meaningful lessons. At the heart of the story is Callie, a tiny calico kitten whose small size never stops her from making a big difference.

Catherine’s storytelling celebrates an important message for children: you don’t have to be the biggest or strongest to be brave, important, and capable of doing something extraordinary.

With Callie the Calico Kitten, Catherine hopes to create a story that families can enjoy together, one that sparks imagination, encourages kindness, and reminds young readers that sometimes the qualities that make us different are exactly what make us special.

A Story for Little Hearts

Catherine invites children, parents, grandparents, and teachers to join Callie on her journey and discover how one little kitten can have a very big heart.

“A tiny kitten. A big heart. A story about discovering that even the smallest among us can make the biggest difference.”
