Wonderful little story to teach the youngest of children that color doesn't matter. There are so many other things to like about someone because everyone is different in their own way.

This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
Ms. Mila Mirason has done a marvelous job in her debut children’s picture book in communicating how two diverse groups of cats; one pure black and the other pure white would refuse to do anything together because of the color of their fur.

Then along comes Stripy, a black/white stripped cat into the white cat’s neighborhood and wanted to play with them, but he couldn’t because they said he wasn’t white. He then convinces he’s white but also has black stripes which makes him special. The white cats were tired of looking the same as each other, so Stripy uses a pot of black ink and paints black stripes on them, and they loved how each one of the looks different now.

He then went to the black cats and did the same thing. Later, when each group of cats saw each other they saw no difference between them and started to interact with each other and enjoyed themselves. Even after it rained, and returned everyone back to just being black or white, their interaction continued unabated as they were having too much fun playing with each other; along with this came their realization of what they had missed staying separated from each other solely because of the different colored fur each of them had.

When the two groups of cats started to have kittens of their own, their kitten all had a different combination of black/white fur making it impossible to tell the difference between them, since their difference now made them all look the same.

The story becomes more vivid due to the marvelously appropriate illustrations which fit their words perfectly. With the superb intention of the storyline to teach the book’s young readers, about the separation of groups based on a single characteristic being wrong if not stupid, I’m happy to give the author the 5 STARS she richly deserves for this endeavor.

I had received a mobi.file of this book through the author through a giveaway she had on LibraryThing and the above has been my honest opinion.
