5.0 out of 5 stars
first book my daughter loved..., July 31, 2008
This review is from: Caramba (Hardcover)
this was the first book (with a plot and real live edible pages) my daughter sat through at 15 months. She loved the pictures. She still chooses it as a bedtime story today. Lovely story about friendship and the challenges of being different.

Enchanting!, June 16, 2006
This review is from: Caramba (Hardcover)
This story is about diversity and meeting a challenge in a different way. And it's cleverly done with a cat who is supposed to swim. He can't, but he does try anyway. His best friend is a pig who can't fly either. But she encourages him to find his niche. The cat does discover that he can swim and other cats cannot. It teaches a valuable lesson about believing in yourself and searching for what really makes you happy. The book is beautifully illustrated. Makes a great gift for a child.

Pigs don't fly either, February 13, 2006
This review is from: Caramba (Hardcover)
What an ego blow! Imagine being the only cat in the world incapable of flight. Woe is you...Wah, wah... Then, you discover you can swim and the other cats cannot swim. Total joy! Maybe this book is an epiphany on diversity. Maybe it means we should accept ourselves for what we are, as long as we have a super power no one else does. Maybe it means nothing at all... In spite of the really nifty watercolors a huge number of this title are offered for sale on the Amazon Marketplace.
