I think this was the only remaining Discworld novel which I had not read; the first of the subset primarily aimed at younger readers. Maurice, slightly to my surprise, turns out to be a talking cat, associated with a group of talking rats who have acquired intelligence accidentally. As ever with Pratchett, it is funny and humane, with a touch of darkness and a couple of moral / political lessons for the young human characters (and thus also the reader). The riffs on Browning and Disney simultaneously are beautiful. Glad to complete my reading of this particular canon on a high.
