The Cats' Museum

Viviana Faletti's 'Cats' Museum' is lovingly illustrated by Victoria Fomina.

Embark on a magical journey through the enchanting pages of "The Cats' Museum: This Might be a True Story", a delightful children's book that unveils the charming escapades of feline friends within the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.

In 1729, Catherine the Great, the museum's owner, discovers mischievous mice in the basement and recruits three "interesting-looking cats" to help. As these furry guardians grow in number to 74, they enjoy royal treatment, including a monthly health check and a yearly grand feast with caviar, fish, milk, and Camembert cheese.

The exquisite full-colour illustrations by Victoria bring this historical fantasy to life, capturing the whimsy, cleverness, and elegance of the museum's feline residents. With each page, young readers will be transported to a world where cats perform Russian folk dances and embark on their own secret celebrations.

Victoria's rich imagination and attention to detail make this picture book an adventure, sure to inspire curiosity about the Hermitage cats and their fascinating history. An imaginative and beautifully illustrated tale that promises to leave a lasting paw print in the hearts of young readers!
