But when the miller loses his temper and threatens to drown the poor cat for being so useless, the mice decide they must intervene, as they have grown surprisingly fond of him...

| NZ Review |
A clever tale that uses very accessible language. There is so much detail in [Blake's] illustrations that each time you look at them you notice something new. -- Bookbag |
