What's it like being a cat? "Can you be like a cat? / Being a cat / is seeking-- // watching, wondering, wandering, / surveying / everything / around you." "Are you happy? / Trilllllll. / (In between preen.) / What's that over there…?" A brown-skinned child and a tabby cat explore answers to questions about cat behavior in very simple text. What happens when cats are tired? (They take naps in various places.) What happens when cats are mad? (Hissing ensues, of course.) Ways that cats say they love someone? Head bunting, blinking, twining between legs…and plenty of purring. Text and illustrations work well together to explain puss behavior to young kitty lovers. Oswald's cutout paper and watercolor textures, digitally finished, will draw all young feline fans in. Though the vocabulary might be above the target audience's understanding in many instances, the illustrations do an excellent job of communicating (often with humor) exactly what's going on. The book wraps up with a double-page spread of cat attributes (tongue, whiskers, sense of smell, claws) with paragraphlong explanations, another double-page spread on feline body language, instructions on leaping like a cat, and a list of cat facts. (This book was reviewed digitally.) Sure to satisfy even the most curious of cat lovers. (Informational picture book. 2-6) Copyright (c) Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
