My latest book for young readers, the chapterbook Sabina and the Cats of Rome, illustrated by Laura Wood, is being published today by Christmas Press. It was such a fun book to write, with the seeds of it first planted by seeing a whole bunch of cats communing in central Rome, at the spot where Julius Caesar was assassinated, no less! And that seed lay dormant for a few years before turning into the adventure of a little girl in Ancient Rome, a haughty little cat, a couple of confused dogs, and a dastardly plot by the King of the Rats!
