Kittens

by Laura Ellen Anderson

A sweet board book that celebrates the many actions of cats. My cat-obsessed toddler was quite intrigued.

Kittens do lots of things.

This is a colorful and fun book simply describing things kittens like to do. The Boy (2) really likes looking through it, and it has enough clever bits that make it fairly amusing for parents too. I like how they're all so floppy and expressive. I would also like to sometime find and look through the Puppies counterpart.

Super cute board book about kittens that would make a good read aloud. The funny, cartoony illustrations contain lots of details, and there's lots to see in them. I could see this being a book that little ones want read over and over.

Silly and adorable. The cat that's asleep on almost every page is my favorite.

With bright and bouncy illustrations, Anderson writes an adorable story filled with mischief as kittens roam her pages.

[Hayley DeRoche · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is adorable, with kittens doing all the things kittens do best: cute-ing, cute-ing, clawing at quilts, napping, and cute-ing. And for a board book, it's surprisingly long!

Great expressive pictures doing what kittens do best!

This is an absolutely adorable board book perfect for toddlers. The illustrations and text are perfect for small children. It is a delightful and amusingly silly read.

Apparently I re-read the book 2 years after the first time. I found it at the same cafe after they renovated and changed their name.

Gullig.
Det är nog allt man kan säga.
Gullig.
Det är en pekbok! Vad mer kan jag säga?
Barnen älskar den. Katterna är livliga, lätta att skilja ut med egna egenheter och färger. Det händer mycket på sidorna och man kan lätt lägga till lite eget berättande kring bilderna.
