guys its a children manga, and as such is very good as the author said is about tolerance and bla bla bla in everyday life like "sometimes our parents can't come for important events but this doen't mean they don't love us or that something bad happened, adults sometimes get stuck at work its okay to be sad, worried etc" "talk to someone about it and knowledge your feelings can make you feel better" all that things children should learn in this story case the moral is not "painted" all over its just a example how the cat acted so its a good one to read and talk about with kids like having a conversation about and asking their opinion etc something adults almost never do to I remember I hated that kind of story that talks like children are fools one thing are books for kids who still can't read, so of course they would be simple but I think if she can read she most probable wouldn't like that unilateral kind of story, it would be as boring as a adult nagging her about being a "good kid" is no surprise she end up seeking for something of the opposite (violent or sad per ex) what I think is natural as kids are programed to seek knowledge about the word if the parents won't teach they will learn from other places (and no, just say "this is bad", "kids don't need to worry" won't satisfy, will just make them afraid of punishment or not learning how to deal with "adult feelings") this one I think works better, you can work less pleasant feelings (as sadness) from here in a health and educational way
but if you are looking for a adult or young adult manga 12+ years you won't find here and of course it will look boring to you as much as reading a children story (lol)
