🐈‍⬛ 2024 TinyCat Birthday Hunt: hints for clue 10

TinyCat 10

A kid’s book honored by Newbery,
Its story is just a bit scary,
Its promised cats are all so pretty,
But it ends with one single kitty. (Lucy)

39 paradoxosalpha : It's there (on the award page), and the title makes it pretty obvious from the clue.

>2 humouress: Any further clues, Nina? I'm stuck on #10, and yes, I've tried the Newbery award books and only two seemed like possibilities, and neither yielded the right page.

90 Stewartry >39 paradoxosalpha: Not helpful. For #10, Google only coughed up one book - ignore that. Check the LT page for the award, and don't just concentrate on medal winners; I did a control-f for "cat".

>3 vancouverdeb: Personally, I googled Newbery honour, cats (and probably scary or pretty) which gave me quite an old book.

119 JenniferRobb : For #10 --took me longer to find it than it probably should have. Had to try a number of keywords in searches until I finally found the right one. it's a 1929 Newbery Honor.

Thanks for the clues. I did manage to get it, and now I have completed the hunt.
