Nicola Bayley is one of England's bestloved artists. She has illustrated many acclaimed picture books for children, including Katje, The Windmill Cat, by Gretchen Woelfle, which was short-listed for the Kate Greenaway Medal. She lives in London.
The kids and I enjoyed these short little stories told from a cat's point of view. The pictures were beautiful, and we appreciated the pictures of some of the cat's funny antics in these books, especially in this one. These would be a really nice bedtime story choice for young kids who like cats, or as a gift for a cat loving friend. Thanks to my friend Pam for letting the kids and I borrow her copies of these books!
The daydreaming cats from Nicola Bayley return, this time as an elephant. This excellent volume from the COPYCATS series is a smorgasbord of color and imagination. Children will love learning about elephants and the cat who can't stop wanting to be something else. Sounds kinda human to me.
