About the author

Here is some brief information about myself.

I’m interested in science because it helps us to understand the world. I enjoy finding out about new things and then working out how to write about them in a way that is both clear (and accurate) but which also conveys my own excitement and interest. I particularly like writing books that are fun, and I have been lucky to have had so many chances to do so.

I was born in Yorkshire in England, but grew up in Stranraer, a small town in south-west Scotland. I graduated from Edinburgh University and then came down to London, where I have lived ever since. I enjoy reading novels, watching films, and walking in the countryside.

This book depicts how a kitten grows from birth to ten weeks. The narrative is very simple and the photographs are adorable. This edition includes stickers of the kitten.

This book is adorable. It shows the steps of how a kitten looks like from when it's born to when it's 10 weeks old and simple things a kitten does with a slight, and I mean slight, story. The book also came with stickers which I loved! Great for any cat fan or a curious person who wants to see how a kitten grows. Wish they went further than 10 weeks though.

I'm taking an anatomy class right now, and that means visiting with our good friend the cadaver. That can be a really intense experience. Thankfully, looking at this adorable children's book about adorable, fluffy kittens brings a nice warm feeling—and acts as a chaser for the unforgettable stench of embalming fluid.

A very nostalgic read. I used to watch the see how they grow videos as a kid. I think this book would best suit children ages 3-5. I give this book 5 stars for a simple storyline.

JO loved it. JF enjoyed it, too. Love the photos and simple text. Borrowed it from The Open Library.

This book shows children in a very simple way how kittens grow. Starting from birth to 10 weeks old, it gives real life pictures of adorable little kittens. This delightful little book also includes stickers for kids to use or collect in a sticker book. It's meant for preschool age kids, but can be fun for early elementary, too.

Very simple text to help readers learn how the penguin changes from when it is born to when it becomes an adult. It is a short story, but done in a way that younger readers will be able to see with the pictures that are used and the visual at the very end of the story.
