The Book Cat

Morgan is a young orphan who lives off scavenging - until he finds a cosy home at a famous London publishing house. Over time he learns a trade - and soon becomes the very best Book Cat in the business. And then the Blitz begins... Morgan finds himself training twenty-odd kittens to be Book Cats, and then there is the small matter of secretly evacuating them out of London. Happily, Morgan has a plan.
