There is jealousy and hatred that the family could no longer endure, so they set out to a neighboring in hopes of starting a new life.  Along with their meager positions and a prized pig, they also bring a pregnant cat to their new island home.The villagers on the new island welcome them and their cat.  They quickly become part of the tribe and are held in high regard along with their  new brood of kittens.  Their new home is everything their old home was not and they flourish amongst the friendly people.Until one day, a group of warriors from their old island home come and savagely beat, then banish them to a cave near the shore.  The cave is, for the most part, inescapable.  But, they are rescued in a very unique and different way.You will have to read the book to discover the final outcome of this truly well-written and engrossing story.Well done, Ms. Deane!
