Description

Meet Cat ...and his colourful collection of pyjamas. One pair for each night of the week. When he wears his space pyjamas, he dreams of Saturn, Mars and shooting stars, when he wears his road pyjamas, he dreams of big red rigs and diggers that dig ...but what will happen when he wears his MONSTER pyjamas?

Author Biography

The Cat's Pyjamas (2011) is Catherine Foreman's first book. She completed a Bachelor of Graphic Design majoring in illustration at AUT in 2002, but it wasn't until many years and a couple of her own children later that images and ideas began to materialise into stories that were complete enough to submit to a publisher. Catherine has since illustrated Chris Gurney's Madison Moon and the hot-air balloon (2012).

Reviews

"This is a delightful story by a talented author who not only writes well but illustrates beautifully. Young children will adore this book. There's something in it for everyone!" -- Otago Daily Times "The Cat's Pyjamas is a charming book to share with pre-schoolers" -- Magpies "We whizz on through the week with a very satisfying payoff on the following Monday morning, and then we can read it again, following the support act of the cat's soft toy" -- NZ Post Judges' Report
