Everyone's favourite magical ginger cat returns to his Apothecary on Mosaic Street in book two of the Magical Mister Mishkins Series. Here, Mister Mishkins encounters Celene, a girl with a dream to dance with the mice on the moon. As well as Celene, Mister Mishkins and his clowder of cats help a range of children with their everyday fears.


When a boy jumps into the Apothecary drawers, Mister Mishkins' new friend, Nero the Hero, joins the cats as they battle the emotions within the realm and try to reach the boy before it is too late.


Will they be able to save the boy? And will Celene make it to the moon? Mister Mishkins has all the answers!


Samantha Mattocks' next book in her spellbinding The Mister Mishkins Series further evolves the colourful, magical world she has created, brought to life so beautifully by Gerda Smit's illustrations and loved by children the world over.
