Description - Winston the Siamese Cat by Elizabeth Winder

"Grandad and Nan had thought of a plan. They said: 'Your family is inclined to spat and that is why you need a cat.'"

Meet Winston the Siamese Cat and his sister Phoebe, two feline additions bought to bring peace to a bickering household. Spoiler alert: things don't go quite as planned!

This delightfully chaotic illustrated children's verse novel follows one family's hilarious misadventures with their new four-legged "peacemakers." Told in rhyming couplets, the story captures every purr-fectly imperfect moment as Winston and Phoebe settle into their new home.

Winston is everything you'd expect from a mischievous Siamese:

  • Jumping on the coffee machine to warm himself up
  • Running wild through the house to avoid taking his medicine
  • Causing delightful chaos at every turn

Phoebe, his timid sister, couldn't be more different-quiet, cautious, and easily frightened by the world around her.

Despite their opposite personalities, the cats get along... it's the humans they can't seem to figure out! What follows is a heart-warming and hilarious tale of family life, furry friendships, and the wonderful mayhem that comes with pet ownership.

Perfect for ages 8-12 and ideal for reading aloud to children and grandchildren. Get ready to laugh out loud as this funny, engaging story proves that sometimes the best-laid plans lead to the most unexpected adventures!

A charming tale that cat lovers and families will treasure.
