Rediscover the magical adventure of Gobbolino the kitten and his friend the Little Wooden Horse, brought to life with gorgeous inside and cover illustrations from Catherine Rayner. When Gobbolino receives his sister Sootica's call for help he leaves his comfortable new life as a kitchen cat and sets off for the Hurricane Mountains, home of the old witch with whom his sister lives. On the way he meets the Little Wooden Horse, who offers to accompany him on his journey. It's just the beginning of many exciting, magical and sometimes dangerous adventures for these two brave and kind-hearted friends.
