About the Author
Eric Carle is the author and illustrator of more than seventy books for children, many of them bestsellers. Born in Syracuse, New York, he moved to Germany with his parents when he was six years old. He studied at the Academy of Graphic Arts in Stuttgart before returning to the United States, where he worked as a graphic designer for The New York Times and later as art director for an international advertising agency. His first two books, 1,2,3 to the Zoo and The Very Hungry Caterpillar, gained him immediate international recognition. The latter title, now considered a modern classic, has sold more than 30 million copies and has been translated into forty-eight languages. Eric Carle and his wife, Barbara, divide their time between the mountains of North Carolina and the Florida Keys.

My son, husband and I first checked a copy out from the library and we read at least a dozen times a day. When it was time to turn the book back in we had to find a copy for ourselves. Our son is absolutely cat crazy and he loves the illustrations in this book. They're so lively and beautiful.

This is one of the most engaging childrens' books I've ever read! I checked it out of the library for my 2 year old daughter and I am here to buy it for her. She wants to read it several times a day! We like to add to it by saying, "Mr. Cowboy, have YOU seen my cat? That's not my cat..that's a BOBCAT!" My daughter squeals in laughter and it is teaching her animals and different types of people as well. I highly recommend it...along with ALL of Eric Carle's books. You can't go wrong.

Little did I know this book would become the "theme" of my daughter's life. My daughter's favorite book when she was small was 'Have you seen my Cat?'

THE most requested book......
My older daughter loved this book so much that I am ashamed to admit that I hid it for a few days! She literally would have read it 12x a day and some days we did. Read more

Boring for parents but GREAT fun for the little-ones!
My 2 year old loves this book. Her main excitement is ... the boy ... searching through lots of different cats. I am tired of the book's repetitiveness. Read more

Have You Seen My Cat
If you kids are like mine, they will go BANANAS over this Eric Carle book. Let them help you read it, once they understand the rhythm (the question sequence). Read more

My son just loves this book
This book can be a lot of fun to read with your toddler if you "improvise". When my 3 year old and I read it together, I always add words describing what we see on the... Read more

Boring!
My son has many Eric Carle books and all of them are great. All except this one. There is repetition and then there is no effort or creativity and this book displays very little... Read more

Wonderful for beginning readers
It is certainly no mistake (as another reviewer stated) to include this book in the 4 to 8 age category. This is a marvelous example of an early primer. Read more

Repetition builds social language
This book was recommended to me by a speech therapist to promote social, "turn taking" language in my toddler. Read more

Great for beginning readers
I agree with other reviewers that this is a good read-aloud for very young children. But just because the text is so repetitive doesn't mean it is inappropriate for beginning... Read more

great choice for very young children
I think it is a mistake is to include this in a category of books for 4-8 year olds. I read this to my son when he was an infant until he was 18 mo. or so. Read more
