    About this ebook

    Black cat was magical and like no other mother. What she gave us we will never forget; the most beautiful, magical mother ever.

    The narrator of Black Cat and the Japanese Umbrella is a young girl processing her childhood to find enchantment and healing in place of damaged lives, and mundane home and school life. Nobody should come of age at age ten.

    Lowri Larsen's novella is a charmed yet sad story, bringing to life the transforming power of magic in all its forms.
