The expression "middle passage" evokes the crossing of the Atlantic Ocean which was necessary to convey black slaves from Africa to America. By juxtaposing "against" to this tag, Steve Light's text seeks to organize a response to the heinous political and commercial enterprises which punctuate our past, recent, and contemporary histories featuring genocides and ecocides.

A bold and beautiful concept book that plays with opposites and reversals.One cat is long, stretching out, and the other cat is short, crouching. When both perch in a window, one tail is straight, the other one curly. One has an empty plate, and the other a full one. With a mouse to entertain them, sometimes lost, sometimes found, they move through the day, until one cat is awake and the other asleep ... but for how long? With enchanting ink illustrations full of pure colour, simple shapes, and an elegant use of negative and positive space, this concept board book for the youngest of readers is a joy to behold ¿ and as graceful as a leaping cat.

It's curtains up on a production from Steve Light, whose intricate pen-and-ink style sets the stage for a high-speed chase through the theatre!
