This delightful children's book is based on a true, heart warming story and contains valuable lessons in having a kind, positive outlook on life. The illustrations are adorable and Sticky the Kitty has become a true hero for thousands of online followers.
I love this story about sticky the kitty. He is so cute and been thru so much in his short life. Thank God for Chuck Hawley.
I first hear Sticky’s story through social media. Have been following his rescuer ever since. I ordered the book, two actually and was delighted with the results. It is a book I will cherish and have recommended to others. I hope for a chance to read it to children at our local library.
Great message for children and adults!

It’s a true story of a sweet innocent kitty that was saved from being actually stuck on the road, because a Good Samaritan, Chuck, took a chance to be the only one to stop and save “Sticky.”

This book is based upon a true life story when a man driving to work, rescued a small abandoned kitten right off the highway. On a regular basis, the man with a huge heart, Chuck Hawley, posts pictures and videos, and writes inspiring words on Facebook. Thousands of people have joined up them on their amazing journey, which has engendered a huge following of fans and supporters, across the Nation and around the World.
