This is a story drenched in history. A children’s book that tells the incredible tale of three courageous Sierra Leone feral cats stowed away on a notorious slave ship. A slave ship destined for the small barrier island of Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina.A fictional story based on actual historic events, the narrative provides an unprecedented perspective of an animals’ view of slavery.My hope is that this little book could be a vehicle in which a conversation on this most difficult subject, slavery, could begin with our young ones.
