About The Book
A truly innovative book for cat and kitten lovers — Oliver’s naughty and precocious perceptions of humans will delight, surprise and perhaps even shock you.
Oliver Kitten was born in a firetruck and ends up living with a three-generation multicultural human family in a four-bedroom house. He keeps a diary of his own escapades and the things he hears and sees his family get up to. At once cute and funny, Oliver is a little naughty and sometimes downright wicked in his precocious observations of the things the humans in his house get up to.
Oliver’s family includes a Scottish grandmother (whose knitting wool has adventures of its own), Clint, a sometimes unpredictable two-year-old boy, the father Richard, his wife Nicole, and Lucy, their 13-year-old daughter.
Lucy thinks she is Oliver Kitten’s owner and spends her life between the fridge and her bedroom, generally with Oliver in one hand and her phone in the other. Oliver is a diligent kitten and keeps a daily diary covering everything in his life including paper shredding, leaping, purring, meowing, kneading, scratching, grooming hiding, escaping, finding sleeping places and giving licks and kisses.
Elegantly produced with black and white line drawings, Oliver Kitten’s Diary shows us a kitten evolving into a powerful and smart adult cat with lots of fun, affection, love and adventures.

“A charming insight into a kitten’s world, Gareth St John Thomas does a glorious job of journalling Oliver Kitten's Diary.”.

“This charming story will be enjoyed by young and old alike. The humour and modesty (not) of Oliver and his naïve interpretations of human actions and deeds will ensure the reader smiles readily. Great fun to read together.”
