About The Book

Your favourite fairytales from a PURRRFECTLY funny point of view. From bestselling author, comedian and actor Ben Miller.

First it’s no more milk for breakfast. Then he’s forced to sleep in a windowless shed. And now he has to use a LITTER TRAY?! Not happening!

Mittens knows a cat of his calibre should be living it up in a castle, and he’s determined to make his dream reality. His master certainly isn’t going to be much help, so it’s up to Mittens to charm the king and queen, defeat a shapeshifting ogre, and outwit the princess’s own cunning kitty. But first things first, he has his eye on a very fetching pair of boots…

Turn the page, share the adventure in a hilarious and magical story for all the family, illustrated by Elisa Paganelli.
