Children's Literature

The title is a real play on words, as readers will learn. Bruce Wayne, aka Batman, is attending a friend's party and admiring his cat collection—the Feline Diamond being the jewel of his collection. Bruce actually likes the frozen saber-toothed tiger best. This gathering is suddenly interrupted by Catwoman, who steals the diamond and is instrumental in breaking the frozen tiger's cage. The tiger thaws out and escapes into the city. Now Batman heads out to recapture the tiger and to also get the diamond that Catwoman stole. He succeeds, but only because Catwoman actually lends a hand. Batman gets two out of the three cats. Part of the "Scholastic Reader" series, but closer to an easy reading chapter book.
