Thisis the cleverest counting and alphabet book I have encountered in a long time. In fact, at first reading, it's so clever and subtle that you might not even realise it's an alphabet book.

If your child has a cat or even just likes cats, this will be a lovely book to share!

I am sure other reviewers have already mentioned this, but this story, were it not for the tragedy it ended in, would often be laughable. I found myself reading pieces out loud to others in disbelief at the idiocy or short-sightedness… Read more
