About This Book
A black kitten comforts a lonely child and, over a sequence of nine bedtime nights, recounts catland lore and a series of episodic folktales and animal fables. Each night presents a different retelling—including feline-centered adaptations of familiar fairy tales—blending adventure, whimsy, and mild moral lessons. The collection intersperses talking animals, imaginative settings, and intimate domestic moments, using the framing device of nightly storytelling to link disparate episodes and to emphasize themes of friendship, cleverness, and kindness in a tone aimed at young readers.
