He lives on the streets, unloved - his only friend is an equally abandoned cat, Piseag Phiollach.  Desperate to find an owner, and to be loved and cared for, he falls into various misadventures and meets a few unsavoury characters along the way.  Always optimistic, he's not quite as street smart as he should be.  His eagerness to please gets him into some very awkward scrapes, but \u003ci\u003eCù Giobach\u003c\/i\u003e always bounces back.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSometimes quite dark, it's ultimately an uplifting story of friendship and belonging.  An imaginative illustrated chapter book for children progressing beyond picture books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by Colas Gutman with striking illustrations by Marc Boutavant, over 2 million books have been sold in France alone and the series is available in 15 languages worldwide.
