Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In unabridged form read by Sophie Thompson, the story follows Verity and her aging tabby cat, Mabel, who once belonged to Verity's deceased mother. Though Mabel is not as sprightly as she once was, Verity cherishes her, especially during visits to her mother's grave, which provoke unsettling thoughts about death. When Verity discovers Mabel has died, she decides to mummify her, inspired by ancient Egyptian practices, believing this will keep them together forever. However, the challenges of sourcing mummification materials and the potential fuss from Gran over hygiene complicate her plans. Jacqueline Wilson crafts a compelling narrative about a spirited girl grappling with the loss of a beloved pet. The story transcends its premise, offering a poignant exploration of a family's unresolved grief over a long-lost loved one. Wilson skillfully addresses serious themes while maintaining focus on her characters' deeply personal experiences, making for a captivating read.
