Skippy Blackfeet
feels safe behind the cemetery walls, hidden from the dangers of the outside
world.
Out there, dogs
bark, and cars blare and blast. Out there, people chase him away with the spray
of a
hose, or the shake
of a rolled-up newspaper. Under the shelter of his agapanthus bush, the little
black cat is often
hungry and lonely … but at least he’s safe.When nine-year old
May visits the cemetery to lay flowers on her Nonna’s grave, she gets separated
from her mother.
She’s frightened and tearful, until she meets Skippy Blackfeet whose presence
is as
calming as a bowl
of fresh cream.
When Mum agrees to
let May bring Skippy Blackfeet home, their adventures have only just begun.
For starters they
need to win May’s dad over. He does not like cats. Especially black cats. Then
there’s the fierce
neighbourhood dog, birthday party bungles, tumultuous trips to town, fireworks
and thunderstorms,
and everything in between! But it soon becomes obvious that Skippy Blackfeet
and May go
together like milk and sardines, and together they can face any challenge.
Skippy Blackfeet is a heartwarming tale of friendship, acceptance, and
belonging that will appeal to
