Follow Djibi the cat as she bounces from farm to forest to a hunter's cozy home in this collectible edition of a classic animal story from the author of Bambi. Djibi the cat is loveable, independent, resourceful, and wise. After escaping from the farm where she was born, this extraordinary kitty learns how to survive in the woods. Djibi travels far in the forest before encountering a hunter. Knowing she is something special, the hunter takes Djibi home. It is a warm and cozy place, home to Tasso the dog, Hansi the canary, and soon, three rambunctious kittens. Ever the curious cat, Djibi continues to get into scrapes and messes around the house, but she loves the hunter and her other animal companions, and rules their home like a queen in her castle. Felix Salten's timeless tale of a delightful cat and her extraordinary adventures is vividly depicted in this beautiful repackage. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

I didn't particularly care for this book. It follows the life of a cat named Djibi, who leaves her first home after the boy gets cross with her after their bull dies. Djibi lives in the forest for awhile, catching mice and pheasants. Eventually she is taken in by a teacher and his wife, and she grows close to their dog, Tasso. Tasso is constantly saving Djibi from harm as she prowls around outside. The book touches on her pregnancies and births, but doesn't linger. Multiple tomcats woo her and take up residence inside the teacher's house for awhile, but none stay long. At the end the farmer kills Djibi for attacking his rabbits.
This book deals with a lot of death, from the mice and birds that Djibi catches to the Angora cat named Mira who finally pushes Tasso too far, to the little puppy Wretchy who gets distemper and the tomcat who gets blood poisoning from a rat bite. Death is a part of life, but I feel that had I read this when I was younger I may have disliked this book for the number of deaths alone.
The way that the humans in this book talk is a little stilted, a little strange. Every time the humans speak at length I am jolted out of the story by their strange speech. And they tend to go on and on, especially about God and the strange ways He does things. ( )
