Emilia Valero

Cats of the Future Emilia Valero

About this book: Beverley, a sleepy town in East Yorkshire, is overrun by strange cats, and there's not a single plant anywhere in sight (well except for the rows and rows of Broccoli grown deep under the Commons in the Broccoli Mines). This is the future that siblings Ben and Stephanie get thrown into on their last day of year 3 before the summer holidays. Instead of going to the library and playing football, will they be able to overcome the plans of evil cat queen Tiny to destroy the present, too? About the author: Emilia is eight years old and lives in Beverley with her mom, dad, cat Tiny and crested gecko Liam. She was born in Germany and then moved to England from America. Emilia enjoys reading, writing stories, drawing comics, and studying marine life. Outside of school she can be found rockpooling, visiting the sea birds at Bempton Cliffs, The Deep aquarium in Hull, or watching seals at Flamborough Head. She wrote this book as a home writing project during the 2020 Coronavirus lockdown and hopes that it will cheer up other kids when they read it.
