Murray and Bun Series

by
(8 reviews)

A Waterstones Best Children's Book of the Year, this black-and-white illustrated chapter book series is perfect for cat and bunny lovers, and all little ones aged 7+ who love history!

Murray is a cat who loves peace and quiet. Bun is a bun who loves being around Murray. They are a dynamic duo, and do a lot together, such as travelling through Murray’s enchanted cat flap. It leads to the garden … but mostly it leads to ADVENTURE! In each book, the two best friends travel to different ages in time, meeting all sorts of characters like vikings, pirates and knights. This is a wonderful series that touches on themes of kindness and friendship, but is also hilariously packed with illustrations throughout that bring each adventure to life. 

We recommend this series for all fans of Bunny vs Monkey, Investigators and Pea, Bee, & Jay. For more illustrated books like this, do also take a look at our blog post on the best graphic novels for readers aged 7 and 8.

Book 2: Murray the Knight (2024)
Book 3: Murray the Pirate (2025)
