Beskrivning

Gabe and his rescue cat help each other to overcome their shyness in this heartwarming tale from the author of the bestselling Marv series! Gabe is a very shy child, especially at school. But when Gabe's parents adopt a cat who is even shyer than Gabe, everything begins to change. Whilst the rest of the family's attempts to engage with their new pet only send it into hiding, it is Gabe who senses what the cat, Art, needs. Gabe sits quietly reading his favourite comic and slowly, slowly the cat comes out of hiding to join him.As Gabe and Art bond, both grow in confidence and assurance. So much so that when it is Gabe's turn to stand up in front of the class and tell them about his favourite book, he surprises himself, and his schoolmates, with his newfound confidence.
