T. S. Eliot's Macavity - the mystery cat and most famous master-criminal cat of them all! - is brought to life by delightfully humorous illustrations from Arthur Robins, a timeless magical partnership.

'Macavity' (the mystery cat!) is one of the best-loved poems from T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats - the inspiration for Cats: The Musical - beloved by generations of children and their parents. Now, Macavity is given a new life in this stunning picture book with illustrations from Arthur Robins that perfectly convey all the wit and humour of Eliot's creation.To sit alongside other classics such as The Gruffalo, The Tiger Who Came to Tea, and Spot.

Industry Reviews

"It's rare that a poem not meant for a picture book translates so smoothly into the form, but Macavity does, coming in at the perfect length with ample opportunity for illustrations to help build out the story. . . .Like Eliot's verses, [Robins's illustrations] present a world of mischief and hilarity."The New York Times

"Robins has infused new life into the trickster cat." --Kirkus Reviews
