  • Chinese Siamese Cat

    Amy Tan

    Audio CD (New Millenium Audio, Feb. 1, 2001)
    "The Truth is," Ming Miao told her five kittens, "you are not Siamese cats but Chinese cats. As a matter of fact, one of our family's ancestors from a thousand cat lives ago was the famous feline Sagwa of China..." One day Sagwa was napping in the Foolish Magistrate's study. From her perch high on a bookshelf, she heard the newest rule: No singing until the sun goes down. A terrible rule, Sagwa thought. After the Foolish Magistrate left the study, Sagwa jumped down from the bookshelf -- pwah! -- and landed right in the ink pot! Sagwa was instantly covered with black ink, and before she knew what she was doing she rubbed her nose on the new rule, blotting out the word not. Now it ordered the people to sing all day -- until the sun went down. When the people heard this new rule, they were thrilled. They raised their voices in song, praising the Foolish Magistrate for thinking of them. And when the Foolish Magistrate heard their praise, his heart warmed. From that day on, he was a wise magistrate. And Sagwa became the greatest of felines! Gretchen Schield's detailed, colorful paintings bring Amy Tan's charming story to wonderful life, making The Chinese Siamese Cat a book to be treasured for generations to come.

  • The Chinese Siamese Cat

    Amy Tan, Dove Audio

    Mother cat Ming Miao has big news for her kittens. They are not Siamese, as they had thought, but Chinese cats with a distinguished ancestry. An ancestor named Sagwa, a thousand cat lives ago, played an important role in the government. Ming Miao tells her kittens how one day Sagwa splashed around in an ink bottle in the Magistrate's study, which not only altered his appearance, but also changed the Magistrate's newest rule prohibiting singing until the sun had set. Now people were ordered to sing all day long! The people hailed the Magistrate as wise and Sagwa as the greatest of cats. This charming fable about government and how rules are made will delight children and enchant adults.
