Publisher's Synopsis

If you are new to the wild, wonderful world of sushi cats (or, Neko-Sushi), we're happy to formally introduce you to these magical creatures. The brainchild of a Japanese company, sushi cats are an extremely unusual life-form consisting of a cat on top of a portion of sushi rice. But make no mistake, these sushi cats are not for eating. As the story goes, the history of sushi cats is nothing more than the history of mankind itself and they have been known to influence humans since the beginning of time.

In this all at once odd, charming, and delightful picture book for all ages, Once Upon a Sushi Cat takes you on a journey through an imaginary history describing where sushi cats come from (Sushi Cat Island, of course), and how they've traveled around the world on their flying plates spreading joy. Although we've gathered a little information from various researchers and witnesses, their existence is shrouded in mystery and sightings remain rare.

Featuring 40+ full-color photos that are both strange and hilarious, a captivating story, and cheeky captions throughout, prepare to be blown away by these fantastic felines.
