Synopsis

One day while walking along a New York pier lost in thought, Visby suddenly finds himself boarding a tremendous cruise ship. A uniquely talented cat, he quickly figures a way to stay on board and travel the world. Eager to share his musical gifts with the Captain and his fellow passengers, Visby enchants his audiences with piano recitals as he crosses the Atlantic and experiences Europe for the first time. 

His whirlwind voyage takes us to some of the most fascinating cities in the world. Everywhere the cruise docks, adventures occur. Visby combines his passion for music with his natural curiosity for distinct cultural flavors. This unique cruiser invites the reader to sail away with him on the high seas – with daring and with gusto!!
