I would like to find a children’s book about a cat who’s mother has died and now is a face on the moon. It was written c.1939-1945. I thought the author was Ben Hecht but the book is not listed among his bibliography.
The book was in color and maybe 15 pages in length. The mother communicates with her daughter every moonlit night.
It was Ben Hecht, his only children’s story, ‘The Cat that Jumped out of the Story’, pub 1947, illustrated by Peggy Bacon
