'When Ramsay Wood retells a story he makes a proper job of it.' - The Times
From around the world - Korea to Ireland, Burma to France - come these nine hardy cat tales, stories that have survived for generations because of their enduring popularity.
Vicious, affectionate, murderous or benign - however you view cats you will find them portrayed here in full contradictory splendour.
Aided by eight top illustrators, Ramsay Wood retells a lively, personal selection. His previous book was the highly acclaimed 'Kalila and Dimna - Selected Fables of Bidpai', which was adapted for the stage as 'A Word in the Stargazer's Eye' at the 1984 Edinburgh Festival. He was the Secretary of the London-based College of Storytellers until 1991.
'A cat may look at a King, and a swain's eye hath as high a reach as a lord's looks.' - Robert Greene, 1590
