When barbarians invade Rome, Miranda the cat and her daughter Punka must find a safe place to hide from the chaos. They make their way through the burning city, collecting motherless kittens as they go. At last they reach the Colosseum—but even there, danger lurks!
How these fortunate felines survive to become the noble ancestors of the cats of modern Rome is all due to the cleverness of the cat they come to call Miranda the Great, Queen of the Colosseum!

      This reissue features a cat living in Rome during the reign of Nero. When barbarians sack the city, Miranda has to find a way to get her daughter to safety and ends up leading all the homeless cats to the Colosseum. She is named Miranda the Great, Queen of the Colosseum. This pseudo-legend is engaging, and the black-and-white illustrations add to the enjoyment.
