Description:

When Lisa's dad brings home a kitten, she never expects him to become her closest companion. Snug and Lisa grow up side by side, sharing an unbreakable bond from her earliest days. But tom cats crave freedom, and as Snug matures, he begins wandering further from home, spending more time away exploring the countryside. One night he returns badly hurt, setting off a chain of worry, heartbreak, and an unexpected twist that tests just how far Lisa's love for her cat will stretch. Illustrated with warmth and told in Morpurgo's gentle, countryside style, this short, dyslexia-friendly read from Barrington Stoke's Little Gems range explores friendship, loss, and the surprising resilience of the human-animal bond.
