The Cat in the Cupboard

From actor, comedian and writer Rob Brydon comes a warm and witty picture book chronicling the adventures of Crumble the cat...

“The cat in the cupboard
is sat in the cupboard,
for that is where
his home is found.
He lives there with pride –
it's his route to outside,
to the place where adventures abound…”

In this adventure, Crumble embarks on a rescue mission into the garden of his arch-nemesis to seek out his beloved lost toy. But it’s dangerous in enemy territory for our plucky feline…

Written in humorous, playful rhyme and brought vividly to life by Ellie Snowdon’s gorgeous illustrations, this is a story to be treasured by children and adults alike.
