What to expect

Adventure and magic collide in Land of the Last Wildcat, Lui Sit's fast-paced debut children's novel about family, friendship and the beauty of our natural world.

'A heart-pounding adventure for young animal lovers, with brilliant storytelling. You will paws-itively adore this one!' - Carlie Sorosiak, author of I, Cosmo

Puffin Lau has two problems: her beloved scientist mum barely speaks to her . . . and a mythical wildcat called the kuri is depending on her for its survival.

Luckily, Puffin grew up on stories of the kuri and its magical powers, and she will stop at nothing to return it to its rightful home.

But standing in her way is the ominous Professor Smoult, a money-hungry scientist who wants to capture the kuri and steal its magic. Faced with a mammoth journey to the faraway Linger Island, Puffin and her best friend Lance must evade the professor and save the last wildcat before it's too late . . .
