• A clever variation on a popular fairy tale.

• Ayano Imai's illustrations are eccentric and captivating, earning her praise around the world (Die Rheinpfalz calls this book "a work of art.")

• Any monster can be defeated if one is cunning enough.

Ayano Imai's clever twist on the classic Grimm Brothers' Puss in Boots sets the trusty cat against the monster on behalf of his master, a poor shoemaker with no work. His cat decides he can save him from his plight, hatching a plan that uses the monster's own vanity against him.
The fierce monster doesn't stand a chance against this clever cat.
