Synopsis:
Mindy was a loving cat. She loved to play and run, like most cats do. But Mindy was a little different. Mindy was a Red cat. Mindy felt she was no different than anyone else but it was hard for her to fit in at school. She needed a way to show her classmates she was the same as them. Mindy finds a way to reach her classmates and along the way learns a valuable lesson about being different, being the same and getting along with others, she will never forget.
The author wrote The Red Cat to help children understand people are different. Nancy was born with Moebius Syndrome, a bilateral facial paralysis. From an early age, she had to learn how to live with a disability which was especially difficult during the formative school years. As I read this story to my two older children, I realized the impact it could have on them. Teaching them that everyone is unique and different in their own way is very important. I also thought it was great because, who wouldn’t like a story with their name in it? 😉
