Pomona Stories of the Cat Witch

Meet Pomona, the wonderful heroine of this warm-hearted collection of short stories, from acclaimed author and illustrator Tor Freeman.

Pomona the Cat Witch lives in a cottage in the forest with her pet caterpillar Baudrillard, and near some of her best friends including Ratso, Elfis and Prince Frog. Pomona works hard to keep her cottage(and friends!) in order, though sometimes things happen that are beyond her control – but there is always a valuable lesson to be learned.

Whether baking the perfect birthday cake, solving insomnia or debating the pros and cons of sharing a hammock, Pomona’s adventures will enchant readers of all ages with their wit and wisdom.
