A well written book for children with illustrations of expressive cats. Author of "Hobo Finds A Home"

Great for reading aloud!

"The Little Cat and the Greedy Old Woman" is a wonderful book for sharing aloud! The story is well-written, and the pictures are adorable and expressive. I am a children's librarian and have used it in storytimes with great success. The children just love this book!

Exceptional illustrations reveal cat's opinions!

Usually illustrations are just pictures. This artist has used illustrations to reveal the cat's feelings and thoughts in a manner any child can see and relate to. Exceptionally funny and clever artwork. My children love to look at this book themselves as they can SEE the cat think!
