$22.00

Written by Mugumogu. First U.S. edition, 2011. William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollinsPublishers.

Maru, a brown tabby cat, lives in Japan with his owner, known online as Mugumogu. Maru is world-famous cat. The most viewed animal on YouTube...*ever*. Maru's videos have been viewed over 342 million times, as of 2017. A Guinness World Record!

"Born on May 24, 2007, Maru is a male brown tabby Scottish Fold, who looks like he is wearing a pair of charming white gloves and socks. You would expect to see folding ears on a Scottish Fold, but Maru is prick-eared. You will find out more about Maru later..."

"Hi, I'm Maru. Reputedly I'm a very good boy, but I can be naughty sometimes. And I'm round in shape just like my name means in Japanese...Hey, who said that?!"

The dust jacket has a poster on the reverse.
