  Three Wise Cats is an inspirational tale about three cats and their journey to witness the first Christmas. The old Siamese Ptolemy was alongside his master when a star of unusual brightness was seen in the heavens, indicating an event of momentous significance, and leading to a great place and fulfill the prophecy: The three shall find the one. The three are, Abishag - a sturdy, reliable cat who has never shirked her duty; Kezia - a beautiful young tabby, delicate, a bit vain, but of good heart; and Ira - taller and stronger than the others, with a temper.
  Accompanying them is a fourth traveler - the rat, Asmodeus, who can hear of no glorious thing without wanting to spoil it. Together, the unlikely band will cover many miles, and have many dangerous adventures. And finally they will come to a far land, where the star bends close to the earth over a humble stable.

  "Five talented narrators knit together the stories of five children from different countries who 
  settle in the same Lower East Side apartment building. Listeners meet Jenny Epstein, author Weinstein's grandmother, whose Russian Jewish family lived in the building in the 1910s and whose story is sensitively told by Eva Kaminsky. Successive generations include Italian American Anna Cozzi in the 1930s, warmly depicted by Carlotta Brentan; Dominican American José Marte in the 1960s, conveyed with delighted wonder by Robert Jimenez; Puerto Rican Maria Torres in the 1980s, animatedly portrayed by Desiree Rodriguez; and Wei Ye in the present day, whose lively curiosity is beautifully depicted by Albert M. Chan. The 
  production is enhanced by original music, evocative sound effects, and Weinstein's heartfelt narration of her afterword." AudioFile Magazine
