Meet Casper
Casper is a small black house cat with one green eye and one brown eye— and a heart much bigger than her whiskers.
Lost far from home, she must rely on bravery, kindness, and unexpected frienships as she journeys across Africa.
She may be small - but she never stops trying.

A Note from Jennifer
When I first imagined Casper, she was simply a small house cat far from home.
But as her journey unfolded, she became something more — a reminder that courage doesn’t always roar, and that even the smallest among us can make a difference.
These stories were born from my deep love of Africa’s wildlife and the quiet connections that bind us to the natural world. I wanted to create adventures that feel exciting without being frightening, meaningful without being preachy, and gentle enough to open a child’s heart to curiosity and compassion.
That’s why we’ve chosen to share the very first book with you.
I hope that when you step into Casper’s world, you find laughter, wonder, and perhaps a few small conversations that linger long after the final page.
Thank you for being here.
Warmly,
Jennifer Ussi
