“In first book in the series ‘Mercury finds home,’ Mercury the blue cat escapes from the shelter and is homeless He looks for home, but no one likes blue cats. He finally finds a family with blue dog. I wanted to picture here an idea, that even if you have certain characteristics (sometimes existing only in your imagination) and have a feeling of not being worthy, you deserve and you will find love and friendship. In second book Mercury and Ami (the dog) go for an expedition to find a treasure. In the end it appears, that the treasure was their friendship.
