MITZI AND THE TALKING DOOR
By Hanni Harel
Reviewed by David Herman
Already on the arresting cover of Mitzi and the Talking Door we find the main protagonists of Hanni Harel's unusual and cautionary tale, Mitzi her beloved little cat, and the fearsome, but somehow lovable talking door, probably the first such door in literary history. Front doors as a rule do not talk, but this one does so freely and teaches us not to take doors for granted. They, too, it seems have souls.
The story opens with poor little Mitzi in a terrible state, sweating profusely and shaking, and rushing home for dear life. When she calms down she tells her owner, Hanni, the reason for her unusual behavior. She had had a good time outside, but apparently, when she entere the building she heard a strange noise and prepared to defend herself. And then she passed a door with arms, a face and a mouth, and a conversation ensued between Mitzi and the door. The door told Mitzi to tell her owner that he was preparing a petition to warn apartment owners not to slam their doors because if they did they would be locked in and unable to enter or leave their apartments.
So Mitzi rushed home very scared and told Hanni what had happened. Of course, like any human, Hanni thought it was all a silly figment of the poor cat's vivid imagination. However, she decided to check it out and slammed her front door shut. Then she went to look at the strange door. First it winked, and then it asked her who had slammed the door. Hanni admitted that she had, and apologized. The door warned her that if she did it again she and her cat would be stuck in their apartment.
So Hanni warns her readers to close their doors quietly, or they may get a visit from the nasty door.
In her beautiful little tale Hanni Harel teaches us that cats and doors also have souls and can talk, and that we must treat our doors with respect and not slam them.
This unusual little hardcover book is beautifully produced and illustrated.
On the back cover there is a picture of the author with her real life cat, Mitzi,
and she asks the readers to write to her saying what they have learned from the story.
Mitzi and the Talking Door is available from Hanni Harel etc….
