A Cat Called Waverley

Debi Gliori

Otter-Barry Books

A poignant and unforgettable story about homelessness and enduring friendship from an internationally renowned picture book creator.

Born in a city park, Waverley is looked after by his best friend, Donald. Until, one fateful day, Donald signs up to fight in a warzone
far away. Loyal and patient, the homeless little ginger cat waits for his friend at Edinburgh’s Waverley Station. He waits… and waits. Years go by but Waverley never gives up. He knows that home is where Donald is. Will Donald ever return and will he and Waverley find a home at last?
