In a divided world of cats and dogs - where dogs only play dog music and cats only play cat music - one little dog chooses to follow the music in his heart, and that means jamming with the cats!
As read by Robbie Williams on Ceebies Bedtime Stories. A thoughtful and entertaining story about togetherness and inclusion. In a divided world of cats and dogs, where dogs play rock music and cats play Jazz, one little dog chooses to follow the music in his heart, and that means jamming with the cats . . .
llustrations evocative of the big city give this tale of rock dogs and jazz cats a marvellously moody appeal. And when cats and dogs come together, who knows what music they'll make? This is a clever story about changing the world, one note at a time. iNews
'A metaphorical masterpiece that we should all take heed of.' Katie Weymouth, Illustrator/Creator of Audrey the Amazing Inventor
'A striking alternative tale.' Picture Books Blogger
Born in former East Berlin, Marie spent her childhood painting, acting, writing and wanting to save the world. Or be an actress, a painter or a filmmaker. But with degrees in Multimedia Technology and Marketing she got various jobs in TV, advertising, branding, events and graphic & web design, but nothing ever felt quite right. That was until Marie realised that making picture books allows her to combine all her passions and skills in the most fulfilling way. Following some very intense years of self-directed author/illustrator training and self-discovery, Marie is finally back where she started, but better. Because with picture books she gets to be a writer and a director, an actress and a painter all in one. And this time she knows it’s exactly what she should be doing.
