The Cat Who Saved Books: A Captivating Fantasy Novel with a Feline Twist, Embark on a Magical Adventure to Save the Books!

The Cat Who Saved Books by Sosuke Natsukawa is a heartwarming Japanese novel celebrating the magic of books, friendship, and courage.

After his grandfather’s death, shy book-loving teen Rintaro Natsuki plans to close the family’s secondhand bookstore—until a talking cat named Tiger appears, asking for his help to save neglected books. Together, they journey through a series of mystical mazes, confronting people who mistreat books: a collector who never reads them, a speed-reader who mutilates them, and a publisher who only cares about profits.

Each challenge teaches Rintaro the true meaning of reading, love, and connection.

Blending fantasy, wisdom, and gentle humor, The Cat Who Saved Books is a touching ode to the power of stories and the people who cherish them.
