What is Kate, the Cat and the Moon about?
One moonlit night, Kate wakes to the sound of a cat calling outside her window. She follows it into the darkness and, in a dreamlike moment, becomes a cat herself. Free from beds, houses and bedtime, she pads through fields, climbs trees and explores the sleeping countryside beneath the watchful moon. As Kate discovers the wild joy of becoming someone else, her magical adventure blurs the line between dreams and reality.
