Description

The naming of Cats is a difficult matter, It isn't just one of your holiday games; You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES. So begins one of the best-known poetry collections of all time. The practical cats need no introduction, but this stunning new full-colour version, illustrated by Julia Sarda, is the perfect companion to Old Toffer's Dogs. Whether you are a cat or a dog person, you will be enchanted by Julia's highly original interpretation.
