Finding a Sunspot

When my eldest was little, I read to her every night. For a time, among her favourite books was Nate the Great. Nate had a friend/nemesis named Rosamund, who was a bit weird. She named her cat named Super Hex.

When my daughter took a cat into her life, she named her Rosamund and then shortened it to Rosie, who can be seen here warming herself in the sun on a cool winter day.

  1. Actually, I believe that Rosamund had four cats: Hex, Little Hex, Big Hex and Super Hex and, if I recally correctly, they all ate tuna fish.

    Those books were great - definitely better than the racist Bobsey Twins!

  2. The Bobsey Twins weren't racist the way I read them to you!
