Synopsis

A retelling of an Italian folk story by the unparalleled talent that is Geraldine McCaughrean. An orphaned child is dressed as a monk and ostracised by everyone except the roaming wild cats of Naples for his scary looks and his seeming ability to bring both good and bad luck. Monacello searches above and below ground for his parents and finds help from a little girl with mysteries of her own.
