‘A generous book, full of love and respect for all children, genuinely useful life lessons and, importantly, cats. Rose Robbins is the best head teacher a cat school could have.’ Viviane Schwarz 'I hated school, and am often undecided about cats - but I totally LOVE Rose Robbins' CAT SCHOOL - funny, brilliantly imaginative and surprisingly affecting - this book is a total treat!' Joff Winterhart‘I loved it and read it in one sitting. My highlights were: the smells to signal lesson changes, so apt and very funny, and Granmog, I thought the way she took Pelly's side was beautiful and so affirming for Pelly. I also loved the multiple points of view and the validation of school-based anxiety which I feel is absolutely vital.’ Rebecca Burgess
