“Cats don’t need house numbers to find an address.”

Renowned for his humorous style, Behiç Ak returns with the sixth book in his much-loved “Chubby Books” series!

In the newest book of Behiç Ak’s colourful “Chubby Books” series, curious Memo and his friend Chubby set out on a walk to Memo’s grandfather’s house. Along the way, they follow the landmarks that give the neighbourhood its character. Filled with warmth and humour, the story invites readers to notice the details around them while showing how homes and neighbourhoods gain meaning through the people, stories, sounds and scents that inhabit them. With its vibrant illustrations and creative approach to reading, the book inspires children to ask their own questions and observe the world around them, while offering an engaging experience for readers of all ages.

Overview

As Chubby and Memo head off to visit Memo’s grandfather, Chubby wonders what the house address is. But Memo gives neither a street name nor a house number. Isn’t an address necessary to find a house?..
