The Cat Painter. Becky Bravo. Illustrations by Mark Ramsel Salvatus III. Adarna House, 2006.
Rahal is an angel assigned to paint cats. One day, he thought out of the box and painted a cat not with the usual black or white, but in different colors of spots, blots and stripes. This angered the head angel. God had the last word. Bravo, a cat lover in person, deftly handles the issue of being different in a most receptive and considerate way.
