Excerpt from The Rainbow Cat: And Other Stories The Rainbow Cat was sitting quietly at the door of his house one sunny day. He felt rather bored. Fairyland had been very quiet lately. I think it's time I set out on a voyage of adventure, he said suddenly. I shall get fat and stupid if I don't do something of the sort. So he shut up his house, put a notice on the door to say that he hoped to be back some day, if not sooner, and that letters and parcels were to be thrown down the chimney, and started off on his journey with a nice little wallet of assorted oddments tied to his tail, together with a neat parcel con taining his party bow and his dancing-slippers. For one never knows, said the Rainbow Cat, whom one may meet, and it is always well to be prepared for anything. He went on, and on until he came to the edge of Fairyland, where the clouds begin. I may as well pay the cloud-folk a visit, thought he, and he began climbing up the clouds. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
