I’d like to tell you a rather true story about a big black cat who
started out gray. Her name was May.
Margaux and her cat May became friends when Margaux was just six years
old. They grew up together, sharing countless memories along the way.
But one day, May is late coming home. Where is May? Is she under the
porch? Maybe on the roof?
Margaux’s nitôsis (the Cree word for auntie) helps search for May in
the tall grass. But soon nitôsis needs to leave: she’s moving away to
the big city, and has to pack her things into boxes. Margaux helps
nitôsis, but she can’t take her mind off May. Will she ever return?
nitôsis is worried, too. But little do they know, May has a surprise in
store for both of them!
This fun and heartwarming story with a surprise happy ending invites
readers to share their own cat stories. My Friend May is a tribute to
love and the balance between all beings, and the experiences and
emotions that connect us all.
