Cats are graceful animals. They make their own decisions about who they want to cuddle up to and play with. How the cat became domesticated, what characterises its nature and appearance, and what it needs to feel comfortable, is explained to beginner readers in simple sentences and short sections of text with the help of extra-large type and great pictures. Entertainment and fun are provided by reading quizzes at the end of each chapter, a letter puzzle and Kati, the cute cat who guides readers through the book.
