The girl's cat, Fred, has disappeared. She calls for him, hangs flyers, but day after day, he doesn't appear. Will Fred ever come home? 

The palette of red black and white works for Rayner's illustrations. The girl's thoughts about where her cat has got to become increasingly fantastic - but the end is so abrupt, that it feels like a big let down.
