If I owned only one book for my children, it would be this.

This beautifully told story, with its enchanting illustrations, tells of a little kitten named Miou. Little Miou is in the care of the wise, old Oshiva, living in a great castle of cats. Miou observes and plays with the other cats in the castle, all of whom live in the castle at different stages in their lives. Some are young, some are old, and some are in-between. Miou gets a bit scared when she sees some of the older cats doing big things, like leaving home on their own. The young kitten shows the fear that many children have about doing things on their own. Most children have worries about the big steps in life, that are so close, yet far away enough to seem extremely daunting. For a small child, things like middle school must be intimidating, much less the notions of driving and leaving home someday. Miou's worries are similar -- and she is comforted by Oshiva's wisdom. Oshiva lets the little one know that the big steps will only come when you are ready for them to come, taking the fear and apprehension out of change. This book is a jewel. My mother must have read this beautiful book to me every night for years. The illustrations are so lovely, and the castle is captivating. If I owned only a single book for my own children, it would be this one. Enjoy.
