Maya and Cat
Maya and Cat is an inspiring picture book about friendship and resilience from one of Australia’s most renowned author–illustrators.
On a roof, as wet as a seal, as grey as a puddle, Cat was rumbling, a rumbly purr. What does Cat want most? Feather boas? Pretty pink shoelaces? A boatful of fish under a tiny tin sail – or perhaps something much more valuable?
Affectionate and evocative, Maya and Cat follows a child’s kindly impulse to an unexpected conclusion.
