Nala's world

written by Dean Nicholson ; illustrated by Frann Preston-Gannon

High up in the Bosnian mountains, where the Earth meets the sky, there was a lonely little kitten. That kitten was me, Nala. I longed for a friend to play with, and I imagined the adventures we'd have and the places we'd see. But it always seemed like a dream too big for a little kitten like me ... When Dean Nicholson found an abandoned kitten by the side of the road one day, he hadn't bargained on the lessons he'd learn from his unlikely companion, Nala. Both curious, independent, resilient and adventurous, they were a perfect match - and so together, they set off to travel around the world. This heartfelt and inspirational true story, with an underlying message about loving and caring for animals, will show young readers everywhere that you can find friendship in the most unlikely places. With gorgeous illustrations from winner of the Waterstones Gift of the Year, Frann Preston-Gannon, and also featuring photos of Dean and Nala's real-world adventures. Dean and Nala's story has become a social media and publishing phenomenon. Dean's book for adults, Nala's World, spent two weeks on the Sunday Times' bestseller list and has been translated into twenty-five languages
