Visit and Contributor Bio: Chien, Catia Catia Chien is an avid painter who works from her studio in Southern California. This is his first book with Houghton Mifflin. He tells audiences that he feels lucky to have been given the gift of stuttering and believes that without it, he would not be on the path of his passion-saving big cats. His conservation work has been chronicled in the New York Times, Scientific American, Audubon, Outside, Jerusalem Report and National Geographic Explorer, among others. Alan Rabinowitz has dedicated his life to two causes: protecting the world's thirty-six wild cat species and advocating for stutterers as a spokesperson for the Stuttering Foundation of America. This real-life story with tender illustrations by Catia Chen explores truths not defined by the spoken word. Follow the life of the man "Time Magazine" calls, "the Indiana Jones of wildlife conservation" as he searches for his voice and fulfills a promise to speak for animals, and people, who cannot speak for themselves. Why are they all alone in empty cages? Are they being punished? More than anything, he wants to be their champion-their voice-but he stutters uncontrollably. Alan loves animals, but the great cat house at the Bronx Zoo makes him sad.
