Nick Sharratt's fabulously funny debut novel is now available in

  paperback. THE CAT AND THE KING tells the story of a gentle, unworldly

  King and his very clever cat, and is illustrated throughout

  in two colours with Nick's irresistible wit and humour.

  The cat and the King must find a new home after their castle burns

  down in an Unfortunate Incident with a dragon. They choose Number

  37 Castle Close, and the cat introduces the King to all sorts

  of new experiences, from washing-up to shopping. Then danger looms

  when the pesky, fire-breathing dragon makes its return.
