When her friend's cat, Kaapi, gets lost, Dip Dip goes off to look for it — on the road, inside dustbins, behind houses, under bushes, everywhere. And when Kaapi finally climbs up a tree and can't come down, the only thing to do is…? Nancy's exuberant illustrations delightfully capture the spirited little girl for whom being on a wheelchair stops her from nothing!
Breaking stereotypes
Several turns make the book a must-read... Yes, Dip Dip needs help — she is no super-kid — but that should not take anything away from what she wants to or how she wants to do it. She is another naughty, tousled-haired kid. She is the kid you chide for teasing friends, breaking a window pane, and well, going after a cat. Tharini Viswanath picks the right words to tell you that, and Nancy Raj captures the exuberance of the story in her expressive illustrations. The Hindu
A ray of sunshine
Like a ray of sunshine this book sets off to dispel the stereo type images of handicapped children… A beautifully packaged story, with eye-catching detailed illustrations, the book although conveying a strong message, does it with a soft velvet glove! Shamim Padamsee, Young India Books
