The Moonkeeper's Cat (Paperback)

🌙 The Moonkeeper’s Cat

by Devon R. Browning

A tender, painterly picture book about moonlight, mystery, and the quiet light within.

High on a cliff above the sea, an old lighthouse keeper paints the moon each night with a silver brush—and by his side is Miro, a gentle gray Maine Coon cat who watches it all. But when the moon suddenly goes missing, and the brush will no longer glow, it’s Miro who steps out into the starlit dark to find the missing light.

Through wind-blown hills, glowing forests, and puddles that hold more than reflections, Miro’s quiet journey becomes something much more—a gentle discovery that sometimes, the light we’re looking for... is already inside us.

Perfect for bedtime or storytime, The Moonkeeper’s Cat is a lyrical, heartwarming tale for ages 3–8 that invites readers into a world of stars, comfort, and courage.
