Come to Victorian England and meet two cats named Rose and Leopold. Adventures abound once Leopold from Germany pays a call on Rose, who lives in the cellar of Buckingham Palace. Leopold at first makes many mistakes; he accidentally stains Rose's fur and insults her. But he becomes a feline gentleman when he learns three English customs: calling cards, teatime, and the language of flowers. The cats' lives intersect with the history of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. As you follow the cats' adventures, you will also learn about life in Victorian England.
