alone . . . In this Scary Graphics tale, easy-to-read text and

A vibrant, heartwarming graphic novel about two irresistible cat
friends on a journey to find their forever home-a journey inspired
by the magic of art and storytelling. Cilla and Betto are two
friends who need a place to call home. The docks in Valletta are
too wet, and the scraps of food too scarce. The city's streets are
too busy, and the humans too unreliable. But what about the quiet
garden from old kitten tales-a place where all cats are welcome,
and the humans are always kind? Could the stories really be true?
As Cilla and Betto embark on a grand adventure to find out, they
begin to spin a tale of their own-one that will take them through
the art and stories of many journeyers who came before, and that
will bring them to a surprising destination.
