Critics Review
Both engages and enchants…beautifully paced * Carousel *
Engages and enchants. Beautifully paced, the simple words and story fuse perfectly with the charming illustrations and tell the tale of a cat who likes to be comfortable. Readers are gently led to a lovely conclusion * Carousel *
This classic tale, first published in 1986, transfers beautifully to board book format. Its simple language and superb illustrations will certainly hold the attention. * Children’s Books Ireland Recommended Read *
Will capture the imagination of all youngsters … enchanting
