Set against the backdrop of Japan’s changing seasons and narrated with a rare gentleness and humour, The travelling cat chronicles explores the wonder and thrill of life`s unexpected detours. It is about the value of friendship and solitude, and knowing when to give and when to take.

In The Goodbye Cat, seven cats weave their way through their owner`s lives. Bursting with empathy and love, it explores the unstoppable cycle of life as we see how the steadiness and devotion of a well-loved cat never lets us down.

Both huge bestsellers in Japan, at the heart of these books is a powerful message about the importance of kindness. Every page is a joyous celebration of cats and how we cannot resist sharing our lives with them.
