In this whimsical tale, a tartan cat and his friends must thwart a villain's plans at an unfair funfair while dealing with unexpected transformations.
In Porridge the Tartan Cat and the Unfair Funfair, readers are introduced to Porridge, a quirky cat with a vibrant tartan coat. This unique coloring came about after a little mishap with a tin of tartan paint during his kitten days. Now living with the eccentric McFun family by Loch Loch, Porridge is always ready for adventure alongside the twins, Roaring Ross and Invisible Isla. Each member of the McFun family has their own secrets, and Porridge, with his nine lives, is ever prepared to assist when chaos ensues.
The story takes a thrilling turn when the twins excitedly anticipate a visit to the local funfair. However, they quickly discover that this isn't an ordinary funfair. Instead, it's a cover for the villainous Fangus McFungus, who has sinister plans to find the elusive sproutinium, a powerful element. In a bizarre twist, Ross is transformed into a hairy scarewolf after riding the Howlercoaster, prompting a frantic quest to reverse the transformation and thwart Fangus's plans.
As the adventure unfolds, Porridge the Tartan Cat and the Unfair Funfair combines humor, whimsy, and a touch of danger. With engaging illustrations and playful language, this book captures the imagination of young readers, making it a delightful read that they won't want to put down. Join Porridge and the twins as they navigate this wild escapade filled with laughter and surprises.
'The latest in a series by Alan Dapre and Yuliya Somina which is worth it for Somina's hilarious cartoons alone.'

'Hysterical [...] There are some brilliant pictures in them too. My 8-year-old loves reading them himself, and they'd be fab to read to a child too.'
