Slinky Malinke

Great book! My grandaughter loves all the Lynley Dodd books! Her books are charming and fun to read aloud!

Delightful book

This book is adorable. The rhyming text is fun to read aloud and the illustrations are hilarious. My 5 year old son LOVES Slinky Malinki and all the other Hairy MacLairy characters. Love that last page with Scarface Claw sneaking into the house after the other cats. :-)

Cute, catchy and easy-reading

This is a short story book about the exciting events that happen in the still of the night. No, I should say "exciting cat events". Read about Slinky Malinki and the other cats' activities, as well as their encounters with the much disliked Scarface Claw. This book should be able to "kick start" kids who don't like reading. Catchy story-line and nice graphics too. I enjoyed every part of it!

Mesmerizingly Cute

Slinky Malinki, the star of the story, creeps out of the house at night to look for the other cats in the neighbourhood to play. But what happens when Scarface Claw appears?A very cute book, written in the form of poetry, children learn all about rhyming words and various characteristics of cats.Lovely illustrations, adults would love this book as much as the children.

Top quality children's story!

This book is becoming my three year old's favorite. He loves the names of the other cats- like Mushroom MacGee and Pimpernell Pugh. The ending is wonderful, especially the drawing that accompanies it. I highly recommend it, but watch out for Scarface Claw....Fsssss- pitapit!!!
