Now we have Mary Nethery´s new book (author of Nubs): The famous Nini!
In Venice in the 1890´s, a caffé owner takes in a stray cat and names him Nini: This is against her better judgment, for the caffé is modest, and she has nothing to spare. In no time at all, though, Nini becomes a celebrity, charming many important visitors, including the composer Giuseppe Verdi, the king and queen of Italy, and even the pope himself. Nini´s fame helps save the struggling business. But is his stardom enough to produce a small miracle of a different sort?
