The Stray Cat Hides A Secret

Description

Three year old Michael, his granny and her pets meet up with a saucy stray cat who shares in the magic and secrets revealed in a backyard garden. Being cooped up with a year of Covid, all having to retreat from our normal everyday lives, the withdrawal actually provided us with an opportunity to become more mindful of the many simple, familiar things that can bring us joy if we choose to live in the present.
