When over 33,000 publishing professionals and book lovers walk through the same doors, you know the books on display matter. Studio of Books was proud to bring such masterpieces at the much-anticipated 2026 London Book Fair.
“Cats in the Window” by Patricia Kawa’a stepped onto the international stage at the 2026 London Book Fair, held 10–12 March at Olympia, London. This year, the book fair welcomed 1,005 exhibitors and more than 33,000 visitors.
The London Book Fair (LBF) is one of the most prestigious events in the publishing world, uniting authors, publishers, literary agents, and industry professionals from over 100 countries. Far beyond a traditional book fair, it is a global marketplace for the sale and distribution of content across print, audio, film, and digital media — where deals are made, voices are amplified, and new stories find their readers.
This is where authors meet publishers, literary agents pitch to foreign buyers, and book lovers discover their next great read. It is, above all, where ideas become movements.
Some of the best views in the world are from a sunny windowsill — especially when you have a good friend beside you.
“Cats in the Window” introduces two unforgettable housemates: Leon St. Ray, the playful orange tabby with an imagination that never quits, and Grapefruit, the sharp-eyed black-and-white tuxedo cat who never misses a thing. From their favorite perch, the two best friends watch the whole world go by — chirping birds, playing children, the mail woman with her daily surprises, and friendly neighbors who wave hello.
They lounge. They yawn. They curl into cozy balls as the sun dips low and the moon takes over. And when the front door clicks? They zoom upstairs — off to dream of whatever tomorrow might bring.
Told in bright, bouncy rhyme and brought to life with colorful illustrations, this is a story that celebrates the small, beautiful things: curiosity, companionship, and the quiet magic of a place called home. Perfect for bedtime, story time, or any time a child needs a reminder that the world outside the window is full of wonder — and it is always better shared.
Warm, whimsical, and written with genuine delight, Cats in the Window is ideal for readers ages 3–5 and a welcome addition to any child’s bookshelf or classroom collection.
