Why read it?
1 author picked Tabby McTat, the Musical Cat as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My daughter loves cats so much, and this is such a sweet story about a busker who sings with his cat, but they get separated when he has to go to hospital, and the cat finds a new home until they are reunited. A bedtime favourite! As with all Julia Donaldson books, it’s beautifully written with amazing illustrations by Axel Scheffler. The first time I read it to her, it made me cry (just a little bit!). It reminded me of A Street Cat Named Bob (which also made me cry).
