No-One Died


No-one died Princess Kitty. That is what Princess Kitty's daddy used to say to her when she was a kitten. If she was worrying about something that happened during the day he would say "No-one died". If she was worrying about something that might happen he would say "It won't kill you".

Princess Kitty has remembered these words. She remembers them and uses them. She uses them when she is thinking about taking a risk. It helps her judge if a risk is worth taking.

Princess Kitty thinks her daddy is quite wise. She thinks she might have underestimated him. She has been asking him to tell her stories, to share his knowledge. When she told some friends they said it was really good and important. They said it is important to do it before it is too late because he won't be around for ever.

Princess Kitty thinks her friends are right. She thinks they are wise too. She thinks it is good to listen to advice sometimes. She thinks it is good to listen to people who know about guinea pigs.

Princess Kitty wonders what advice she can give Growly Bear. She thinks and thinks. She scratches her head. Then she knows. She would say "Imagine being on the other side. Imagine yourself saying no-one died".
