About This Book
Reach for this book when your child has had a day filled with 'too much energy' that resulted in a mishap or a brief moment of wandering off. While the story features a whimsical Midsummer Eve flight, the heart of the narrative is about the security of being found after a mistake. It follows Mog the cat, whose rambunctious behavior leads to him falling from a broomstick and getting lost. Parents will appreciate how the story balances the natural consequence of Mog's actions (getting lost and receiving a firm talking-to) with the unwavering commitment of his friends to bring him home safely. It is a comforting choice for preschoolers and early elementary children who are beginning to navigate independence and the boundaries of safe play. The vibrant, iconic illustrations and simple text make it an accessible tool for reinforcing that even when we are 'naughty,' we are always worth searching for.
