Críticas:
"Jaeggi lavishes care on the watercolor illustrations, in which everyday features of Japanese life add historical and architectural interest"
"The qualities of compassion and generosity that are gently demonstrated and the theme of virtue rewarded are undeniably laudable...Jaeggi's lovely watercolors reflect the serene tone and evoke the exotic setting, and her use of panels echoes traditional Japanese artwork."
"Evocative watercolor illustrations capture ancient Japan in this picture-book retelling of the lucky-cat legend...With its compelling story and stunning art, this is a worthy addition."

Under the shadow of the white-capped mountains of Japan, a kind and gentle monk takes in a white cat with unusual markings and names him Tama, Lucky Cat.
Tama watches as his new master teaches Buddha’s ways to poor farmers, caring for their welfare while ignoring his own empty stomach. Tama truly earns his nickname—“Lucky Cat,’ when during a powerful thunderstorm, he sees a towering warlord on a white horse. The cat beckons the warrior forward just as a large branch crashes to the ground and lands right where the warlord had previously stood. In gratitude to Tama, the warlord lavishes gifts on the monk’s poor temple.
In a marriage of graceful text based on one of the legends of Maneki Neko—“beckoning cat,” in early Edo-period Japan—and breathtaking watercolor illustrations, debut author Wendy Henrichs and award-winning illustrator Yoshiko Jaeggi offer a beautiful story of friendship, generosity, and kindness.
