Cathy’s Catastrophes – My Life from Bone Blunder to Hamster Disaster (vol. II)

How embarrassing is that?!

After Katha got a very bad grade in her ethics test, she has to make use of the project week to improve her grade. How annoying that the topic is ‘responsibility’ – and Katha has no idea what to do. Luckily, her teacher is looking for someone to care for her hamster Udo for a few days. Jackpot! Or is it? Udo keeps Katha awake at night, escapes from his cage, and gets into danger. Then Katha and her friend Lisi get into massive trouble, because they find a bone in the forest and drop it in the letterbox at the Institute of Forensic Medicine. When the local newspaper reports a murder, things start to get completely out of hand ... What a cat(h)astrophe!
