Once upon a time, in a jungle far, far away, lived a tiny squirrel named Katto. She was a beautiful squirrel with a silver coat of fur, a long, graceful and bushy tail, and to top it all,  a charming, toothy smile. God had blessed Katto with a heart as lovely as her looks. It was large enough to shame even the heart of an African elephant.

But like all really beautiful things and beings in this world, Katto’s beauty was not perfect. A great flaw marked it as she was totally blind. A great misfortune indeed, but it made no difference to her. She was one happy squirrel, though unaware of her own beauty and charm. Katto lived within a comfy old crack in the trunk of the tallest Oak. This crack had always been her home. There was a bed made of the softest moss and ample storage space for the winter nuts.
