Varjak Paw
SF Said
Prior to and during the Olympic Games, vehicle access will be restricted in Paris, so orders may take longer than usual to process.
This cat must learn to fight!
Varjak Paw is a Mesopotamian Blue kitten, who lives high up in an old house on a hill.
He's never left home, until he receives a mysterious visit from his grandfather who tells him about The Way - a secret martial art for cats.
Now Varjak must use the Way to survive in a city full of dangerous dogs, cat gangs and, strangest of all, the mysterious Vanishings.
With stunning illustrations from acclaimed graphic artist Dave McKean, this award-winning story has become a modern classic. A celebration of friendship, loyalty and difference, Varjak Paw is an adventure like no other.
Praise for Varjak Paw:

'A beguiling tale that sticks in the memory. The cat's whiskers' The Sunday Times
