The White Cat Black Cat (traditional Chinese: 白貓黑貓; simplified Chinese: 白猫黑猫; Jyutping: baak6 maau1 hak1 maau1; pinyin: Báimāo Hēimāo) series was founded by Ma Sing-yuen and Fong She Mei in 2004. Nowadays, White Cat Black Cat books are well received by children and parents in Hong Kong.

Characters[]

The main characters are a white cat named Q Boy (Q小子; Q-siu2 zi2; Q-xiǎozǐ) and a black cat scholar named Doctor A (A博士; A-bok3 si6; A-bóshì). They are characters created by Ma Sing-yuen (Ma-long).

Q Boy is the main character of the White Cat Black Cat series. He is one of the 24 classic local comic characters selected by CreateHK in 2012.[1] The three-dimensional sculpture of Q Boy was displayed at Kowloon Park in Tsim Sha Tsui and Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai.

Q Boy asks questions and Doctor A, who is the uncle of Q Boy, has answers. Their names refer to the English words "question" and "answer". Besides the characters mentioned above, Mr Ma Sing-yuen created several other interesting characters as well, like cat girl Miu Miu, Q Boy's little brother Chocolate, Q Boy's best friend Little D, etc. With their dialogue, children can learn efficiently and happily by reading the questions and answers. The series was established in 2004.[2]
