The Bookshop Cat by Cindy Wume

 

With a book, I can go anywhere and be anything

All you could ever want is right here on these shelves

Books will take you on adventures far away, where you will meet astronauts, villains and unicorns

If you love cats, books and bookshops then this is the book for you - it is purrfect!  

Publisher blurb: The Bookshop Cat loves his job at the Children's Bookshop, where he spends his time reading, purring and recommending his favourite books to all the children that come into the shop. But one day, disaster strikes! The bookshop is flooded, and the children stop coming to visit. With a bit of help from his family and friends, the Bookshop Cat comes up with a brilliant plan to bring the Children's Bookshop back to life!

Every problem has a solution:

"They placed books in the playgrounds and along the beach. They put them on benches, in doctors' waiting rooms, inside the museum and the city aquarium. They even put books in the greengrocers, right next to the bananas."
