EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
This is a classic Armenian folk tale, fully illustrated and reinterpreted for modern readers.The premise of Gadoo the Cat started with an Armenian proverb - 'The cat which is a cat, will run after a mouse.' Although the story of Gadoo was told and retold more than a century ago, it still has relevance, interest and strength to contemporary readers. The images in this folksy story provoke a smile and give credence to the humble, instinctive understanding of the Armenian villager concerning life and living creatures. In short, you can't change instinctive nature because some things are as they are.
