The Little War Cat

The illustrations make beautiful use of light and dark to convey the difference between safe times and times of war. As a life-long companion to cats I can also confirm that they beautifully capture the movements and personalities of felines. This is a great read for empathy. It introduces the concept of war in a very accessible way. It is also a story of hope and love – that for every person affected by war, there will be a safe shelter.Louise Nettleton, https://bookmurmuration.com/the-little-war-cat/

Both the author's words and Laura Chamberlain's illustrations show the transformational power of kindness and love, and how warmth and acts of altruism can help others to transcend the worst of timesJill Bennett, Books for Keeps
