Statement from the author:
"Aya and the Firecats is the story of the young girl Aya and her magical cat Mika, who must go on a journey together to save their world from destruction. The story is a tribute to the wonderful personality of the pet cat. Every cat lover will see the traits of their own cat reflected in Mika and her friends. The story was born when I was a little girl who dreamed about being small enough to ride my favorite barn cat and follow her on her adventures in the fields. It is also the story of the wonder of nature and all its creatures and of the need to protect the environment. I hope you will consider reading it, either yourself or to your children or grandchildren."
