Emile
Emile is the story of a snow white cat living in a house with little color. He lives his life indoors amidst grey walls, brown furniture, and people wearing black and white clothes. One day, enchanted and intrigued by the beautiful colors of a butterfly, he ventures outside and discovers a world of color. Later Emile brings that beauty home, where his people are inspired to transform their environment. Emile realizes the benefits of change, that cats can sometimes know more than people, and experiences the joyous gift of painting.
