This charming story is based on a real-life onion peddler from France who
has been selling onions from his bicycle in London for many years. In this
story, Quizz, the cat, steals the onions and everyone in the neighborhood joins
a search to find them!
Shortlisted for Prix International Du Livre Espace Enfants 1996.
