Trim was a cat born for adventure ...

This is the true story of a courageous, mischievous and fearless cat called Trim, who sailed with Matthew Flinders on his voyages to map the coastline of Australia and beyond.

Flinders was a navigator and cartographer who was involved in several voyages of discovery between 1791 and 1803, including the circumnavigation of Australia, and another voyage that proved Tasmania is an island. Trim was a cheeky black cat, born on ship, who was rescued by Flinders after falling overboard. Trim travelled with Flinders and kept the ship free of mice, maintained order among the other cats and even survived a shipwreck.

From best-selling creators Corinne Fenton and Craig Smith, this charming picture book brings Trim's story to life.
