A beautifully illustrated story about making tough decisions, friendship and love. It is also a play on the idea that money can't buy happiness like the love of a pet.

The team from Learn From Play have made 5 activities for this book which are perfect for children in pre-school or kindergarten. They are a maze to help Nicholas find his cat, counting the sweets, step-by-step instructions to draw a cat, finding the odd one out and colouring the liquorice correctly.
