After an old man dies, his youngest son gets the old man’s cat and he wonders how he will be able to survive with just the cat. Throughout the story, Puss tricks the king into believing that his master is royalty and in the end, Puss’s master and the princess get married and live happily ever after. This story is filled with lively language and it has a major theme of cheating and lying which is not always a good thing to have in a fairy tale.

Sub-titled "The Kitten Who Always Wanted to Be Something Else: A Sad Story that Ends Well," this adorable picture-book, a classic of Swiss children's literature first published in 1947, and first translated into English in 1953, follows the story of Pitschi, a little kitten who isn't like her four litter-mates. While Grigri and Groggi wrestle, and Patschi and Negri climb the broom, Pitschi (who is "not amused") sets out to discover who she is, imitating a succession of different animals on Old Lisette's farm. But although Pitschi can strut like the rooster, wear a bell like the goat, waddle like the duck, and hop like the bunny, she discovers in the end that she is still a very little kitten...

One of the most popular post-war children's book illustrators in Switzerland, Hans Fischer has a style here that, despite what I would almost call a "scribbly" appearance, manages to be entirely winsome. Pitschi is a lovable little feline heroine, and her wide-eyed exploration will enchant young readers. By turns humorous (the scene in which Pitschi struts after the rooster is priceless!), frightening (the night-time encounter with fox and owl is truly sinister), and endearing (the adorably concerned dog, Bello!), the artwork is always expressive, and the story involving. Pitschi is definitely a picture-book that deserves its status as a classic - just as it deserves to be better known here in the English-speaking world!
