Description
Meet Doorkins, the smallest yet most recognisable member of the Cathedral. With wedding guests to entertain, meetings with the Queen to attend and tired staff to look after, Doorkins has a busy week lined up ahead of her. Following the real life exploits of Doorkins, Southwark Cathedral's self-proclaimed 'Magnificat', this charming picture book gives a complete tour of the Cathedral, and is sure to raise a smile on the face of any cathedral attendee, or fan of cats.
