Adults

Michael Rosen has received many awards for his work including, in 2023, the prestigious Pen Pinter Prize. Just as importantly, he is many children’s favourite author and poet. They are thrilled when they learn that he is to visit their school.

His cats, however, do not seem to have the same high regard for his work. They settle down for a snooze on his latest poem, nudge his hands away from his keyboard when he has a deadline to meet and insist that his whole reason for existence is to go out, no matter what the weather, to get their food.

Own a Cat? Sounds like yours? Perhaps you should take this book home and read it to them. If you don’t own one, be sure to give to a friend who does. They will be grateful.
