Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
Cat Catching Stories is a collection of short stories for both adults and children. It tells the story of two little sisters, Delphine and Marinette, who live on a French farm, their parents, and a group of animals. These animals have different personalities and are the real protagonists of the story. Among them, there is a cat that prays for rain, an honest and kind dog, a rational duck, a cow that studies hard, a pig that wants to lose weight, a leopard that longs to see snow, a wolf that wants to turn over a new leaf, a deer that loves freedom, and so on. The world where people and animals live together in a lively manner is humorous, touching, and thought-provoking.
