  A young school teacher learns about strange lights in a foreboding marsh; a nurse in a remote outport visits the baby she delivered weeks before to find a devastating change; a woman meets a mysterious funeral procession late one evening; a musician falls thrall to a group of strange little people and can’t stop playing. The stories in Spirited Away are populated by the fairy-led, by changelings, by people who stray onto fairy turf and experience unnerving events.  
  These literary renderings of stories and anecdotes that author Tom Dawe has collected from across Newfoundland offer an accessible and engaging introduction to one of the Newfoundland and Labrador’s most powerful and peculiar folk traditions.

  No Ordinary Cat: Rufus is no ordinary cat. His mesmerizing green eyes captivate every human he meets. Moreover, he has a destiny, and it calls to him from birth, luring him into a wilderness that combines breathtaking beauty with imminent danger. As Rufus discovers, though, destiny isn't just about eluding danger or releasing the adventurer that lives within us all. It's also about friendship that lasts a lifetime. A story for any reader, any age, who knows what it means to have a friend that can read what's in our heart.  
  Finding Waihona: Rufus is desperate to reunite with his feral friend Asha, a highly intelligent black feline who routinely courts danger. Encouraged by his fearless soulmate, Rufus widens his world to encompass new characters and opportunities. Together, he and Asha carve new trails, outwit predators, and discover a long-hidden tree fort-Waihona, a mystical place that offers sanctuary to all lovers of the wild, human and otherwise. Finding Waihona, a book for all ages, is about learning what the heart treasures, and protecting it with everything in us. 
  Asha: Queen of Cats: This finale introduces us to Edna, a teacher so gifted she can make cats love literature; Elvira, who fancies herself a witch but may have a beating heart in there somewhere; and Bear, the "born actor," lured into becoming a star catcher overnight, though he's never played ball in his life. It's Asha, deadly assassin and friend to Rufus, who steals the show, though. They say cats have nine lives — and Asha's already used up a few. She'll need every remaining one to survive the harrowing circumstances she concocts in this rollicking tale of adventure and daring.
