Cat and Dumpling: Home Sweet Home Launch Party With Nicola Kent

We're thrilled to announce a launch party with Nicola Kent to celebrate the release of Cat and Dumpling: Home Sweet Home! Join us for this special event on Wednesday 19th March 2025, from 7-9pm. Here's what publisher Oxford University Press say about the book:

The first in a charming new series by author Nicola Kent. Packed with beautiful full colour illustrations and a delightful story about best friends, Cat and Dumpling.

Cat and Dumpling are best friends, but they're very different. Cat is an impulsive dreamer who loves to knit, and Dumpling is a cautious planner who loves gardening. In these chapter books for early readers, the pair's far-fetched schemes and conflicting ideas wreak warm-hearted slapstick havoc, but always with a happy ending and a reassertion that despite their differences Cat and Dumpling will always be the very best of friends.

In Home Sweet Home, Cat and Dumpling meet for the very first time. They're both searching for the perfect home and have very different needs. Eventually they stumble across the perfect place-the only problem is, they both want the same flat! Can the pair survive as flatmates, or will their differences just be too much to overcome?

Nicola will be signing copies and celebrating the release of Cat and Dumpling on Wednesday 19th March, from 7pm. You can pre-order a signed copy from us for mail-order or collection by clicking the link here.
