How to be a Cat

How to be a Cat

by Mary Hoffman (Author), PamMartins (Illustrator)

Synopsis

Being a cat has to be carefully taught, as this mother cat's words to her kittens demonstrate. Yawning, stretching, twining round legs, slow careful washing from the ears downwards - everything a young cat needs to know is presented in easy-to-learn verse form. Pam Martins' appealing artwork captures the charm of Mary Hoffman's words of wisdom in a book that will delight every dedicated cat-lover.
