Story?
The story is all about a cute little girl, Minnie, comes home from school and can’t find her pet cat Pooni. She goes into the garden but Pooni doesn't come when she’s called! Minnie asks people all along the action-packed street if they've seen the cat. Minnie is upset as she couldn't find her Pooni. As per teacher advice, she returns back to home with sad face. By the end there is general relief from everybody both inside and outside the book. Pooni has the last word – “Prrr” – and the final illustration shows Minnie cuddling Pooni, who is no doubt completely unaware of the trouble she has caused.
Pictures in the book also shows Pooni's silent adventure with crow, Don't miss that when you read :)
