We'll bring some rescue cats to spend the night with us too!

The earlier you register the more time you'll have to read the book!
Books will be available to pick up at the Glass Bookshop’s new location in Ritchie by May 15, 2023 (or before).

About The Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa

An instant and international bestseller, The Travelling Cat Chronicles has charmed readers around the world. With simple yet descriptive prose, this novel gives voice to Nana the cat and his owner, Satoru, as they take to the road on a journey with no other purpose than to visit three of Satoru's longtime friends. Or so Nana is led to believe...

With his crooked tail--a sign of good fortune--and adventurous spirit, Nana is the perfect companion for the man who took him in as a stray. As they travel in a silver van across Japan, with its ever-changing scenery and seasons, they will learn the true meaning of courage and gratitude, of loyalty and love.
