5.0 out of 5 stars
why is it out of print?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Comic And Curious Cats (Hardcover)
How can such a fanatastic, gorgeous book be out of print? Both pictures and words comspire together in their simplicity to creep up on you and take you unawares. What has happened?

The most beautiful cats,
This review is from: Comic And Curious Cats (Hardcover)
I was given this book many years ago, but have discovered it anew since we started reading it to our toddler son. The story is really too complicated for him, but he is entranced by the beautiful cats. Their eyes, in particular, are mesmerising. We revel in the clever rhymes (how often does "verisimultide" appear in verse I wonder?) and can imagine this book becoming a family favourite. What a pity that it's out of print!

A lot of fun!,
By ADP (Washington, DC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Comic And Curious Cats (Hardcover)
Any cat lover will treasure this book. It's a combination of beautiful cat illustrations (which are really almost portraits) and tongue-in-cheek poetry that captures the nuances of personality with which all cat owners are familiar. My fiancee and I have had fun writing Leman-esque poetry about our own cats, inspired, of course, by this book.
