Katje the windmill cat lives happily with Nico, the miller, in a Dutch village by the sea. But when Nico brings home his new bride, everything changes: Katje is shooed away by Lena whenever she sweeps the house, or whenever she finds Katje playing with the new baby. Eventually, poor Katje leaves her home and moves into the windmill. But when a storm breaks the dike that holds back the sea, Katje performs a feat of extraordinary courage that makes her forever welcome in the house once more. This heroic tale was inspired by a true story that took place over 500 years ago.
