Johnny was a bell-boy, you see, and he carried all of Countess Kandinsky's things to her room. But Johnny didn't expect to end up with Kaspar on his hands forever, and nor did he count on making friends with Lizziebeth, a spirited American heiress. Pretty soon, events are set in motion that will take Johnny - and Kaspar - all around the world, surviving theft, shipwreck and rooftop rescues along the way.

After all, he's Prince Kaspar Kandinsky, Prince of Cats, a Muscovite, a Londoner and a New Yorker, and as far as anyone knows, the only cat to survive the sinking of the Titanic...

This is a sweet story of an orphan boy who becomes a bellboy at the London Savoy when he meets the beautiful Russian Prince Kaspar the cat. His adventures with the cat lead him to stowaway on the Titanic, “the only cat who survived its sinking.” Gorgeous illustrations. This is the British version and it‘s a gorgeous book. The book says it is for 7+ years, maybe so, for a child who can deal with a lot of death and sadness. #letterK #litsyatoz

Michael Morpurgo never lets me down. The story and illustrations are lovely and appropriate for readers age 8+. Lovely book.

Technically not a #graphicnovel but it is a novel with beautiful graphics. Plus it's the story of a black kitty, my fave! So for tonight it is my #favegraphicnovel
