Speaking in Feline: The year is 1985, when the average latchkey kid is babysat by MTV. This coming of age story is told through the eyes of Tara, a twelve-year-old Duranie girl, whose two goals in life are to graduate to junior high and marry one or more members of the band Duran Duran. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she meets two cats from the Planet Murf, whose mission is to relay an important message to the cats on Planet Earth. Despite setbacks from a pest brother, a mean teacher, busy parents, and the looming dread that Duran Duran might break up, Tara is determined to help her friends from outer space.
