Customer Reviews

Kids love the whimsy of this book

We love this book! The premise is that a pet owner doesn't quite "get" that his cat is really an elephant. My 4 year old daughter thinks the illustrations are hysterical and can't stop cracking up when she sees the "cat" sleeping in the laundry! Very whimsical and fun book!

Wonderfully imaginative

I have this in the original French, and I love it. It is hilarious. Like foreign films, it may not be exactly what most Americans expect from a children's book, but it is great for encouraging alternative ways of looking at the world.

Fun and beautifully illustrated!

I bought this book for myself even though it is aimed at children. It is beautifully illustrated. Very lighthearted. The owner of the "cat" never seems to realize that his pet is not a cat at all. I have shared this book with friends and family, and everyone has loved it. I highly recommend it as a gift for cat lovers of all ages.
