✨Catsby the Curious and the Traveler’s Tea

By Devon R. Browning

A time-traveling tale of tea, wonder, and whiskers!

What if a sip of tea could send you back in time?

Catsby is no ordinary cat—he’s curious, clever, and cozy to his core. One quiet afternoon in a sunlit library, he discovers a mysterious teacup carved with stars and a scroll labeled “Traveler’s Tea — Sip to See the Past.” With a flick of his tail and a purr of excitement, Catsby takes a sip… and the adventure begins!
