A Cat Called Cookie

Cookie was a little black cat who was always exploring the house, the backyard and the trees around the house he lived in with Mrs Prentice.

When he was chasing a fat mouse one day, Mrs Prentice put her straw broom in his way and told him to stop chasing the mouse! Cookie wanted to tell Mrs Prentice that the mouse was running into the kitchen to eat her breakfast toast on the table, but she didn’t give him a chance to give his side of the story?

Find out what happens next. When Mrs Prentice walked back into the kitchen, what do you think she saw? Did she then understand what Cookie was trying to tell her before?

Join Cookie to find out about being fair.

With four children under five, living on a small farm near Melbourne, the author respected the need for their careful education and sensible discipline and told them stories, based on farm and wild animals, that would impart to them life lessons for their paths ahead!

With the passage of time, some twenty-five plus years, these stories have now been put down in writing and published for children everywhere who will face similar challenges and choices in their own lives that the author’s children successfully met in theirs.
