Felicia and the Rat (book & music)

By Mauro Magellan

This is a story about a rat who finally found some friends to play with...really.

Louie lives high up on a rooftop. Sometimes he feels lonely. He likes to play the drums, but he doesn’t have anybody to play with. Down on the street however, it’s a different story. When the moon is high in the sky, the cats come out to play. Louie plays along from his rooftop home. He dreams of one night going down there and playing along with those cats, but they might not want to play with him. You see, Louie, well...he’s a rat. Now, this wouldn’t be a story if he hadn’t gone down and asked Felicia, who sings and plays guitar, if he could play with them...would it?
