This short book like Bowwow about dogs is full of facts about cats. As pointed out, many have cats but we know little about them. I knew few of the facts mentioned in this book. I have always liked cats and they are an amazing animal and have served man far longer than the Egyptians as first thought. Again like the sister book to this, Molly Pearce's illustrations add to the delight.
