Accompanied by her daughter, Jessica, Agatha Cat sets off around the world to find her sister, who has a penchant for travel and adventure. Their alternating diary entries describe their trip. The handsome book combines skillful gouache artwork, smaller pictures arranged in a scrapbook format, and a few letters that can be taken out of their envelopes. Unfortunately, this picture book, with its complicated, lengthy text, will have a limited audience.
