Remy, a tuxedo cat, befriends a Calico cat whom he names Callie. The two enjoy playing together with Remy taking the lead. While Remy purrs all of his communications (com-mew-nications?) , Callie never purrs. She speaks expressively, for example nodding.
The rest of this picture book is about looking for Callie’s voice. Will she find it? If yes, what will lead to her purring?
This book gives kids a couple of messages. One is that friends don’t have to have the same abilities to enjoy each other’s company. Another is that it is okay to do things in one’s own time.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions are my own.
