«El gat Mog» is a children's story by Joan Aiken, published by Cruilla, SM in paperback (93 pages, in Catalan).
The story starts from a question as simple as it is surprising: what would happen if a cat were almost as big as a whale? From there, the narrative follows this enormous feline in a rural setting, where a boy climbs onto its head and embarks on an adventure full of imagination.
It belongs to the «El vaixell de vapor» collection (no. 16). This edition is the second, from March 1987, with translation by Mireia Curell and illustrations.
Recommended for child and young adult readers, especially those who enjoy stories about extraordinary animals and fantastic adventures.
