All aboard as Skimbleshanks, the Railway Cat, stars in the third picture-book pairing from Arthur Robins and T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's cats, set on the Night Mail train where Skimble won't let anything go wrong.


To sit alongside other classics such as The Gruffalo, The Tiger Who Came to Tea, and Spot.
