A miaowvellously fun adventure novel presenting a slice of European history to us from a particularly feline perspective. Nueve veces gato Nine Times Cat Autora: Domenica Luciani Everyone knows that all cats have nine lives, but there is something about the lives of Bigote de Luna that is at once mysterious, magical and strangely inexplicable. For this cat has been many things: Egyptian deity revered by none other than the Pharaoh, shadowy companion to a medieval German witch, a celebrated actor in London's theatres during the Industrial Revolution, freedom fighter in Nazi occupied France and an elusive advertising model amongst New York's skyscrapers.
