Satoshi Kitamura was born in 1956. After dropping out of school to pursue art, Kitamura decided not to attempt a 10-year apprenticeship as a potter and instead worked as a graphic artist. He was not trained as an artist, but at the age of 19 began to do commercial work as an illustrator for adverts and magazines. He moved from Tokyo to London in 1979 where he worked mainly at designing greeting cards.
Satoshi Kitamura has won several awards, including the Mother Goose Award, the National Art Library Award from the Victoria and Albert Museum, and a Nestle Children’s Book Prize Silver Medal. He lives in Japan.

If you have ever seen a sleepier cat than this without anesthesia being involved, I will give you $10. This was the first Satoshi Kitamura book we fell in love with, due to his amazingly expressive cartoons. We have this in board book format for little bitty kids, but if my son wanted to get rid of it, I'd put it in my own library. I'd also give it to cat-loving adults as a gift. It's so cute!

The other books in this series, such as Dog is Thirsty, are fine, but Cat is Sleepy is the best.

El primer libro favorito de mis hijos. Las ilustraciones, ricas en detalles, fueron ideales para ayudarles a conocer palabras, descubrir cosas, y entender lo que está pasando sin muchas palabras. Lo leímos infinidad de veces y aún así, ya grandes, lo siguen adorando.

Very good indeed, only one small problem with it, cat can't sleep on the wall as it is full of cats. Fine. however, you can see out of the window on another page and the wall is empty! where did they go? Great pictures, loved all the stuff on the first page and the kitchen too.

Su contenido no es muy musical para un bebé de un año, pero si se entretuvo.

Ideal para primeras lecturas con bebés, pocas palabras y muchas ilustraciones.
También lo recomiendo para preescolares que están aprendiendo a leer frases cortas.

Jamás pensé tener tanto en común con un gato. Las ilustraciones bellísimas y llenas de detalles dignas de ponerles atención para complementar el diálogo.

No se, siento que faltó algo.

Con este libro me di cuenta que a los japoneses les encanta los gatos, ya me he encontrado muchos libros sobre gatos de autores japoneses.

Si el niño elije este libro y como adulto le ayudas (comprar, regalar, prestar) para que pueda leerlo, ten por seguro que es una buena elección. Si como adulto, te gustaría conocer un poco más sobre el libro, entonces te invito a leer la reseña:
Es un libro de dibujos que en principio parecen burdos, pero que la observar toda la ilustración se aprecia muchos detalles, en términos de texto e historia es sencillo, pero da la oportunidad para apreciar las imágenes y disfrutar viendo los escenarios.
En este tomo se sigue a un gato para buscar cual es el mejor lugar para dormir, dentro y fuera de casa, y las razones por las que no puede dormir en ese lugar.
