Book Synopsis

Dejad paso a Ro-Ro, una gata ninja nada ordinaria que viene con ganas de vivir las aventuras más locas. Una serie para lectores independientes con montones de ilustraciones.

La gata Ro-Ro y su hermano Silver viven a sus anchas en una casa londinense. Ro-Ro es casi completamente ciega y aprendió a usar sus instintos gracias a un maestro gato-ninja italiano que le enseñó todos sus trucos. Durante el día Ro-Ro y Silver son gatos comunes, pero por la noche viven
las aventuras más locas.

Cuando una noche anuncian en las noticias que una cobra gigante ha escapado del Zoo de Londres, llega el momento de que Toto y Silver pasen a la acción. Con la ayuda de un gato muy aristocrático y dos hambrientos tigres, ¿conseguirán encontrar a la serpiente a tiempo?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Meet Toto: she's no ordinary cat, and she can't wait to have an adventure with you!

From one of the UK's best-loved broadcasters, purrfect for fans of The Aristocats, The Secret Life of Pets and Atticus Claw Breaks the Law.

Toto the cat and her brother, Silver, live footloose and fancy-free in a townhouse in London. Toto is almost totally blind and learned to trust her senses from a ninja cat-master who taught her back in Italy, where they were born. By day, Toto and Silver seem to be ordinary cats, but by night, they love to have adventures! One evening, news reaches Toto that a king cobra has escaped from London Zoo! Together with help from a very posh cat and two hungry tigers, Toto and Silver must investigate. Can they find the giant snake, before it's too late?

With gentle themes of friendship, inclusivity and winning in the face of adversity, this is a hilarious must-read for all animal-loving kids!

Dermot says: "The idea for Toto first came to me when my wife and I rescued two stray cats from an olive grove in Italy. One of them, Toto, has been blind from birth, but we quickly realized she had ninja-like reactions. Like a lot of cat owners (or cat servants), we like to imagine our pets having secret lives when we're out or asleep. So, before I knew it, I was writing about Toto and her brother Silver's nocturnal adventures around London. I really hope that children who pick it up enjoy reading the adventures of our little Italian underdog (cat)."
