When the first envelope arrives in the mail, decorated with cheerful colors and illustrations, it looks innocent enough. But inside are the neighborhood animal’s reports, schemes, and suspicions. The kitten is too small to hunt, too young to defend herself, and the animals fear the rats that creep through the shed at night. Something must be done.
Week by week, the mission grows. A cat spy named Seven crawls under the shed. Princess, a small terrier with the bravery of ten bigger dogs, gathers intel from the neighborhood. Raven scouts from above. Captain the duck draws up the rescue plan with a flap of her wings and a sharp eye for danger.
And you read each update and not only follow the plan—they become part of it. They test recipes the animals recommend. They try games the animals play after reconnaissance. They study the kitten’s predicament as though it were their own mission to solve.
And all the while, the envelopes keep coming.
