Richard Ayoade’s children’s debut gives you all the answers in a way that’s silly, funny, and thoroughly beguiling. Have you ever thought about how it feels to be a book? To be left under a whiffy pant pile or shelved, forever collecting dust? To have your pages bent backwards or your spine broken? What if you don’t have a sparkly unicorn or dragon adorning your cover – who will pick you out of the bookshop then? This is the story of the sadly neglected ‘Book That No One Wanted To Read’ – can its destiny change when it finally meets the right reader?

Within the pages of ‘The Taming of the Cat’ is the adventure of a Princess who does not wish to be married. Written as a modern fairy story, this is a story about tolerance, outsiders, and non traditional partnerships. This illustrated story is accompanied with plenty of cheese, catnip, and magic feasts. There are two stories entwined: the story of Brie the mouse; and the fairytale he tells – Scheherazade-like, to Gorgonzola the cat.

Fen and Rey were found curled up small and tight in the fiery fur of the foxes at the very edge of the wildlands. Fen is loud and fierce and free. She feels a connection to foxes and a calling from the wild that she’s desperate to return to. Rey is quiet and shy and an expert on nature. She reads about the birds, feeds the lands and nurtures the world around her. They are twin sisters. Different and the same. Separate and connected. They will always have each other, even if they don’t have a mother and don’t know their beginning. But they do want answers. Answers to who their mother is and where she might be. What their story is and how it began. So when a fox appears late one night at the house, Fen and Rey see it as a sign – it’s here to lead them to their truth, find their real family and fill the missing piece they have felt since they were born. But the wildlands are exactly that: wild.
