Read an Excerpt

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer were a very notorious couple of cats.

As knockabout clowns, quick-change comedians, tight-rope walkers and acrobats.

And when you heard a dining-room smash

Then the family would say: "It’s that horrible cat

It was Mungojerrie! and Rumpelteazer!" – And there’s nothing at all to be done about that!
