Felicity the witch can't resist turning herself into a tiger-striped cat every night, though she knows she won't be able to change back after her ninth transformation. In an unexpected and satisfying conclusion, she decides to become a cat forever. The illustrations, featuring warty witches and a grinning feline Felicity, lend a light tone to this tale inspired by an Irish legend.
