Description

An ode to the many moods of the beloved housecat, this colorful, chunky board book is a work of art meant to be displayed face-out on nursery bookshelves.

"Purr-fectly presented for children, whether or not they have cats in their lives."--School Library Journal

Silly or serious, awake or at rest, to those who love them, all cats are the best. The cats in this bright, playful board book come in all shapes, colors, and sizes--but they don't let their differences keep them from having fun together. Every page turn reveals a new layer to Lydia Nichol's adorable depiction of a home full of cats--some elegant, some goofy, but each adorable in their own way. Perfect for cat lovers of all ages, this rhyming story is a celebration of our furry feline friends.

Some Cats is part of the LAYERED VIEW board book series celebrating the ways in which our differences make the world a diverse place. Whether examining the unique needs of every flower in a garden or the special qualities of every puppy in a dog park, every die-cut page of a LAYERED VIEW book adds a level to the story--all building to one gorgeous, multi-dimensional scene perfect for displaying on a bookshelf or a bedroom shelf. Rich with special effects like foil and embossing, LAYERED VIEW board books are a beautiful, playful way to introduce new perspectives to the little learners in your life.

Critical Reviews

Toddler-PreS-Layered die-cut pages reveal the wonderful world of cats. Rhyming text conveys the complexity of cats, from "elegant, graceful, and proud" to "clumsy, goofy and loud." Illustrations of bright-eyed cats will have children laughing at their antics and appreciating felines in all their delightfulness.

VERDICT Purr-fectly presented for children, whether or not they have cats in their lives.
