Koinonia has acquired the Hungarian rights to A Dog Named Cat and the Last Arctic Fox, the fifth book in the beloved series by Tomi Kontio & Elina Warsta (ill.).

Lovely news for our children’s list: Koinonia has acquired the Hungarian rights to A Dog Named Cat and the Last Arctic Fox, the fifth and final book in the artistic and moving series by Tomi Kontio & Elina Warsta.

A Dog Called Cat is a touching series about finding friendship and the things truly important in life. It tells the tale of a small dog. She is called Cat by her mother, because cats are independent, and the young one must learn to be independent. Soon, Cat realizes, however, that often being independent only means being lonely. But one day things change, and then Cat is not alone anymore. From there, Cat’s adventures begin to unfold. In A Dog Called Cat and the Last Arctic Fox (2024), Dog, Cat, and Weasel travel to the Finnish Lapland along with their new friend Tiger. On the beautiful nature adventure, the group saves an Arctic fox and once again confirms the importance of friendship and belonging.

The series began with A Dog Called Cat, then followed by A Dog Called Cat Meets a Cat (2019), A Dog Called Cat Looking for Home (2020), and A Dog Called Cat and the Wonder of Christmas (2021). In Finland the series is published by Teos.

Koinonia is a Romania-based publishing house who publish in Hungarian. Their list consists of carefully picked titles, and pride in publishing translated literature from smaller countries and minority languages. They have successfully published the previous books in the Dog Called Cat series.

Congratulations to the authors and the publisher!
