Critic Reviews

“A story that introduces the concept of being able to be friends even if you have differences in beliefs, values and habits. Both the simple but powerful text and the gentle illustrations in their subtle palette convey a tone of harmony even though the cats are distinctly different.”

Winston and the Indoor Cat is a picture book steeped in thoughtfully designed illustration and charming characterisation Reading Time
Leila Rudge is an experienced children’s book illustrator and storyteller. In this tale her considerable talents are on display. The ink and pencil illustrations are gorgeously coloured and beautifully detailed, while still dreamily producing the suggestion that this is a cats’ world where humans are barely noticed. Leila Rudge achieves this in part by bringing her perspective right down to the kitchen or forest floor where the cats are. This is a simple and magical little book for beginning readers, from one-year-old to five years old, and further if they really love cats. Reading Time
Friends can be very different but there is always a space where they can meet in the middle. The Funday Telegraph
