Book Review of Cats: Little Tigers in Your House (Books for Young Explorers)

Cats: Little Tigers in Your House (Books for Young Explorers)
emeraldfire avatar reviewed on


This short nonfiction book is all about the life of a mother cat named Fezziwig and her two newborn kittens, Toddly and Paddy Paws. The story actually follows the kittens' life from newly born to two months old, using photographs to chart their growth and their interaction with the world around them. From Toddly's and Paddy Paws' first grooming session with their Mom to meeting several unique family members and making friends; from playing with each other to meeting their new humans: the two youngsters, Sam and Dana.

I think that this particular book would certainly be appropriate reading for young children who are just learning about how to care for animals. Although I didn't really learn much more than I already knew about cats, I still enjoyed reading the cute story and looking at the photographs. I would give this book an A!
