In this short chapter book, readers will discover operatic dreams of three wonderful French felines. Silhouette, Eugene, and Minuet are on a mission to fulfill their dreams of going to the Paris opera. First, they go and sing in front of the opera building to earn money for their tickets. When the cats realize that the tickets are sold out, they've got to find a more creative way to watch the show. Before they know it, they find themselves on the opera stage with a giant crowd cheering them on. Readers will love the silly illustrations and the inspiring story about loud-mouth Eugene finding a place where he fits in purrfectly.
