Dandy the Highway Lion cover

A delightfully old-fashioned debut adventure for modern children aged 7 and up, full of friendship, daring and fun. 'This is a story filled with charm ... I read this in one sitting, finding myself transported back in time and all the while feeling this would make for a brilliant film!' LOUISE NETTLETON, BLOGGER Ben and Hattie meet a new friend in the park. Mr Dandy Paws is not just any big cat, he's a highway lion who robs from the rich to give to poor animals in need. His next daring rescue is a breakout from the city zoo. But if they help him, Ben and Hattie could get into more trouble than they bargained for.  Set in an off-the-wall 1920s London complete with talking animals! Strong animal welfare and ecological themes with a funny and fantastical twist Inside illustrations with a classic nostalgic feel by Roxana de Rond
