Description
When a poor miller dies, he has nothing to leave his son but a cat - but, fortunately, it's a very smart cat. With just a pair of boots, a feathered hat and a cloth bag, the wily Puss changes his master's luck, transforming him from a peasant into a prince. John Cech and Bernhard Oberdieck, who created the critically acclaimed "Classic Fairy Collection"'s version of "The Princess and the Pea", have teamed up once again to present a clever and enchanting retelling of one of the oldest fairy tales of all.
