Fantastiska illustrationer och till stora delar en fin berättelse på rim. Tyvärr är det en väldigt märklig och lite obehaglig del i boken där huvudfiguren, pojken Elmer som förvandlas till en jaguar på natten, jagar en (flick-katt) som är rädd för honom så pass att hon springer ut i en gata och blir påkörd av en bil. Hon blöder och Emler pussar henne, hon vaknar och vill genast bli bästa vän med Elmer.. Gammal och sunkig beskrivning av pojk-flickrelationer a' "han kastar bara sten på dig för att han gillar dig" fast värre.
Synd på en annars fin bok!

De illustraties zijn mooi maar de Nederlandse berijming is zeer matig.
