So, What's It Like to Be a Cat?

by Karla Kuskin

Book Overview

So, what's it like to be a cat? I'm very glad you asked me that. Are cats afraid of the dark? Where do they prefer to sleep? What time do cats eat their breakfast? And what do they really think of dogs (and people )? The award-winning team of Karla Kuskin and Betsy Lewin explore the secret inner lives of felines in this beguiling question-and-answer interview between an intrepid child and a very clever cat.

Fun Stuff

A friend had this book on her kitchen table and I read thru it while waiting for her. It's on par with Dr. Seuss as far as quality. Very nice poetry and excellent illustrations--perfect for young children. Any cat owner would appreciate this book--yes, even adults. ha ha

Wonderful book for toddlers

My 5 year old really loves this book. We have two cats and there are very few books with cats as real characters that kids can relate to. I also like that the cat relates to a boy, since many of the images in our society often show cats or kittens with little girls. If you have a son and cats or kittens please purchase this book for him.
