"Whittington" by Alan Armstrong tells the charming tale of a young cat named Whittington who escapes from a harsh life and finds a new home on a farm filled with animals and adventures. He has a special bond with a group of talking farm animals, and through their friendship, he shares the story of a legendary cat named Dick Whittington, who sought his fortune in London.
