New York, 1996: A fire breaks out in a warehouse in Brooklyn. A cat who has found refuge there with her five babies fights the flames to rescue them. Even though Scarlett is badly injured and in a miserable condition, she calms down only after she is sure about all her babies being well, safe and sound. A moving story which proves that the love of a mother knows no boundaries.

The series “Unexpected Friends” is aimed at preschool and early-grade school children. The stories are based on actual feats of heroism, faith and devotion on the part of animals. Each book contains an addendum descri­bing events as they happened, as well as basic knowledge with regard to each story.
