Book 2

By: Dermot O’Leary, Nick East

Narrated by: Dermot O’Leary

Toto is no ordinary cat, and she can't wait for you to join her on her second ninja adventure! A funny animal escapade written and read by one of the UK's best-loved broadcasters. For fans of The Aristocats, The Secret Life of Pets, 101 Dalmatians and Atticus Claw Breaks the Law.

A hilarious story for all animal-loving kids, with gentle themes of friendship, inclusivity and winning in the face of adversity.

Toto, the amazing ninja cat, is back and cooler than ever!

Something CAT-ASTROPHIC has happened: ALL the cheese in the world has been stolen. Join Toto, her brother Silver and their best-friend Catface on a secret mission to save the day. Toto is going to need all her ninja skills to defeat the fur-midable cheese thief ...

Dermot says: 'The idea for Toto first came to me when my wife and I rescued two stray cats from an olive grove in Italy. One of them, Toto, has been blind from birth, but we quickly realised she had ninja-like reactions. Like a lot of cat owners (or cat servants), we like to imagine our pets having secret lives when we're out or asleep. So before I knew it I was writing about Toto and her brother Silver's nocturnal adventures around London. I really hope that children who pick it up enjoy reading the adventures of our little Italian underdog (cat).'
