Billy, The Condominium Cat, written and illustrated by Esphyr
Slobodkina. Published in 1980 by Addison-Wesley.
Billy and Bianca’s story is not an uncommon one in American
life, where so many older people are separated from their
families. The elderly cat and his retired mistress spend
their days alone in a Florida condominium wistfully dreaming
of the things they’ve left behind—a little house in New
Hampshire, delightfully naughty nephews, cheerfully bubbly
nieces. Full of warmth, simplicity, and charm, this is the
story of an old cat and an old woman who miss their children
and enjoy their visits, but who value their peace and quiet.
