Katten och visheten

AvJames Norbury

Inbunden, Svenska, 2025

168 kr

Det här är berättelsen om en katt som söker vishet. Han hör talas om en uråldrig tall djupt inne i lönnskogen, som sägs vara en källa till oändlig visdom.

Detta blir början på en resa med många upptäckter. Längs vägen träffar han flera olika djur, allt från en rädd apa och en livstrött sköldpadda till en tiger som har problem med ilska, en förvirrad vargunge och en girig kråka.

Alla har en historia att berätta och insikter att dela med sig av. Men efter ett överraskande möte med en lekfull kattunge börjar katten ifrågasätta precis allt ...

James Norbury arbetade som volontär för en hjälplinje och fick många samtal från deprimerade och självmordsbenägna personer. Det inspirerade honom att formulera kloka tankar om livet som han illustrerade och la ut på Instagram. Bilderna blev till boken Stor Panda och Liten Drake som blev en internationell dundersuccé. Mängder av människor har tackat honom för att hans illustrationer och kloka ord hjälpt dem i svåra tider när de haft självdestruktiva tankar. Katten och visheten är hans tredje bok.
