Publisher Description
Charlie Ashanti is the son of two scientists who are kidnapped as the result of a dramatic discovery they’ve made (the cure for asthma, which is rampant in this near-future world). Ten-year-old Charlie decides to go in search of them, and uses his ability to speak Cat (which he’s had ever since he was scratched by a leopard as a baby) to gain helpful information. The local cats of London point him in the right direction and even deliver messages from him to his parents and back. When Charlie finds himself aboard a floating circus that’s heading to Paris, he befriends the circus lions, who become his further accomplices. He’ll help them escape the circus as this first book in a trilogy draws to a close.

"Zizou Corder did an amazing job with these three books. Compelling, lively, and just enough intrigue to keep you hooked without dragging you through the mud, so to speak. Plus, I loved the small amount of scientific whimsy. The narrator did a great job too. "

" Ever let a book sit on your shelf forever cause you weren't really interested and then finally read it to discover a gem you can't believe?? That is this book for me. Loved it. Now have to fine the rest of the series. "

" I think that the "Lion Boy" is a really fun book, and as a detailed story... This book is a twist of realism and fantasy, but fun at the same time. "

" Karena baca buku ini saya penasaran membayangkan isi tenda Oriental Circus yang sedang main di Margonda, Depok. Ternyata isi perut Circe sama sekali jangan dibandingkan dengan sirkus2 Indonesia, ya... selegendaris apa pun sirkus itu... :p "

" beware! a good book, but one that can't stand alone; it has no ending but rather cuts off abruptly to be continued in the next volume (which, also does the same thing >_<). "
