Riassunto

For Mauby, the cat who lives with her friends on the Caribbean island farm, adventures seem to be a thing of the past. She is getting fat and a bit lazy. But one day, Boo, the wise owl, warns the farm animals of great danger to come. A hurricane is about to hit their island home. Farmer Hunte and his wife have gone to market, so the animals must save themselves. Not surprisingly, it is Mauby who has to rescue a few who are missing when the storm strikes.In doing so, Mauby has to draw on her survival instincts in the face of the howling wind, the slashing rain, and the rushing waters of the river, finding even greater perils when she seeks safety underground.

Recensione:

"There's action galore in Mauby and the Hurricane as the animals face heavy rain, flooding and the destruction caused by the hurricane. This is a story of friendship and sticking together in times of trouble." --Debbie Jacob, Caribbean Beat

"Detailed, imaginative, colourful and highly visual, Mauby depicts life on a farm, the fun friends can have together and the difficulties they bear as a group. The book is a must for children who love adventure, parents who want to spend quality reading time with their children and for those cat lovers out there. There really is something in it for everyone." --Shaunette Jones, The Sunday Gleaner
