Miss Petitfour enjoys having adventures that are 'just the right size' for a 'single, magical day.' With her sixteen cats and the aid of a tablecloth as a makeshift balloon, Miss Petitfour soars - which is to say, she rises high in the air and flies - over her charmingly eccentric village, encountering adventures along the way. One never knows where the wind will take her in this delightfully seasonal collection of magical outings: perhaps to the aid of dearly loved friends and neighbors, including a hapless handyman and an onion-loving baby, or to a coconut-confetti parade, or in search of keys, lucky charms or even simply the perfect tablecloth for her next flight. A witty, whimsical, beautifully illustrated collection of tales that celebrate language, storytelling and all the pleasures of life, large and small!
