An exquisite story to delight readers young and old, from a much-loved writer and illustrator. Includes an audio CD of the heartfelt reading by award-winning British actor Bill Nighy, with an afterword recorded by Judith herself.
What do you do if you find an abandoned seal pup on a rock in the middle of the sea? Well, take it home with you to your flat, of course.

At least that's what Mr Albert Cleghorn thought, though perhaps he hadn't considered all the complications...

This is the story of what then happened to Mr Cleghorn and Charlie the seal in their determination to find a home for Charlie and, incidentally, happiness for them both.

Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, Mister Cleghorn's Seal is a classic in the making from the inimitable Judith Kerr.

This edition also includes, on audio CD, a heartfelt dramatisation voiced by award-winning British actor Bill Nighy, with an afterword recorded by Judith herself.
