A hand-drawn coloring book by Nelco neco Chika Akasu about a group of precocious little cats who get up to all sorts of things when their mother is not looking. The pictures have a slightly retro, romantic look and show childhood wishes and dream worlds.
The scenes follow the four seasons. Spring has a swing for two, a nap in a flower field, a trip into a world of cake, gardening and a white rabbit. Summer has washing in a tub, a hot-air balloon ride, a forest camp, a secret tree house, pirates and playing in the water. Fall has acorn picking, a cat in a mushroom dress, a Halloween world, mixing potions in a laboratory and a mountain of old books. Winter has playing in the snow, warm morning soup, cloth dolls, trainee Santas getting ready for Christmas, a big Christmas tree, a candy house and knitting with Grandma.
The book is in a large format and opens with a prologue and an introduction to the characters. Each picture has its own story, so the finished book reads like a picture book. The coloring pages at the back can be cut out and used as mini cards.
