Albatros nakladatelstvi as Our Cat's Day
Book SynopsisOne day in a life of a little boy and his pet cat is portrayed in this poetic picture book with dreamlike illustrations.In this book the readers follow the actions of a little boy and his kitten in the course of one day and during this time we discover that there are more similarities between humans and animals than we would think—from sleeping and eating to playing and taking care of yourself. On each spread there is a question asking the readers about the topic concerned on the given page and making the reading experience interactive. Also, there is a little hidden object game throughout the book.The lovely illustrations by a world-renowned Japanese artist Iku Dekune in combination with text by Czech contemporary poet Radek Maly makes the book Our Cat's Day irresistible.Trade ReviewSelected for the CBC’s 2023 August Hot Off The Press Reading List (https://www.cbcbooks.org/cbc-book-lists/august-2023/) "Soft, smudgy, dreamy illustrations relate the love between a small child and a young cat. In the morning both the cat and the child stretch; the interactive element enters: Can you arch your back too? Both the child and the cat go to the toilet… (cute picture of the cat leaving the litter box scattering the litter everywhere). Both wash. Both eat breakfast: What are you having? Time to play outside. There are hidden cats throughout the book for the reader to find. Success might look like learning to tie your shoes – or catching your first mouse… This is an adorable book, a tribute to cats and the bond between a child and a pet." —Katrina Yurenka, Retired Librarian, Contributor, Youth Services Book Review "The charming illustrations of gifted artist Iku Dekune deftly augment the text by Czech contemporary poet Radek Maly. The result is "Our Cat's Day" which is unreservedly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library Pets/Wildlife picture book collections for ages 3-6." —Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch "This gentle picture book chronicles the day of a young person's no longer a kitten but not a full adult male cat." —Librarian, Bangor Area School District "The poet, Radek Maly, did a great job taking the reader and listeners through the day of a cat, more specifically a house cat. Similarities between the boy and the cat are made for example both like to stretch, eat, play. The illustrations by Iku Dekune are beautiful and help with the tie in games such as count the cats. My five year old grandson enjoyed this one and made references to his own house cats. My three year old granddaughter was interested for a while but then was ready to move on to something else. I would like to thank the publisher for the advance copy in return for an honest review." —Librarian, Palacios Junior High "That cover won my heart! And the story by Czech poet Radek Maly of a day in the life of a little boy -- contrasted to that of his kitten -- is perfect for the intended audience of children 3-6 years and the adults who love them. Plus, there are questions to answer and a search-and-find exercise that makes this fun and interactive. I especially loved the gorgeous illustrations by Japanese artist Iku Dekun. Highly recommended!" —Literary Redhead, Goodreads"The illustrations are great and I like the idea of using questions to get children involved in the story." —Let's Talk Picture Books"Children love to relive their day in the pages of a book and will especially love to learn how much their day is similar to a cat’s. Each page also includes a question for reflection: Cats love to cuddle. Who do you like to cuddle with? Written by a beloved Czech poet adn and featuring the warm, tender illustrations from a renowned artist, this is a book little ones will treasure." —All Done Monkey

Oneworld Publications The Cat Man of Aleppo: Winner of the Caldecott
Book SynopsisLonglisted for the Cogan Heroes Picture Book Award 2023 Winner of the Caldecott HonorWinner of the Middle East Book Award ‘A beautifully told and illustrated story that offers a unique perspective on both war and humanity.’ Kirkus, starred review Out of the ravages of war came hope. How an act of kindness inspired millions worldwide. When war came to Syria, many fled the once-beautiful city of Aleppo and were forced to become refugees in far-flung places. But Mohammad Alaa Aljaleel decided to stay and work as an ambulance driver, helping the civilians that couldn’t leave. He quickly realised that it wasn’t just people who needed care, but also the hundreds of cats abandoned on the streets. Using the little money he earned, he began feeding and looking after them. But there were too many for Alaa to care for on his own, so he asked the world for help to keep his new friends safe. Soon, his call was answered. Alaa’s brave and heart-warming story is brought to triumphant life on these pages, which include a note from Alaa himself. Alaa’s cat sanctuary has expanded to work with local children traumatised by a lifetime of war. To find out more about his work, visit ernestosanctuary.orgTrade Review‘Latham and Shamsi-Basha pick out the glimmers of light that make up Alaa’s story, and Shimizu portrays their beauty.’ * Publishers Weekly, starred review *‘A beautifully told and illustrated story that offers a unique perspective on both war and humanity.’ * Kirkus, starred review *'Shimizu’s digitally coloured paintings, echoing Edo-era Japanese art, are masterfully emotive... This story could work effectively as a readalone or a readaloud, and it feels as much like folklore as narrative nonfiction with Alaa’s connection to his feline friends appearing almost magical at times. Teachers will appreciate this gentle introduction to a devastating conflict, and audiences will find solace in the reminder of humanity in the direst times.' * The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books *'What a relief to see Middle Easterners depicted as recognizably modern people — through their clothing, technology, and so on — rather than religious caricatures or characters from Aladdin. A safe, sobering, and hopeful introduction to the crisis in Syria.' * Booklist, starred review *'Latham and Shamsi-Basha simply and charmingly relate Alaa's deeds, enabling young readers to connect closely with their subject. Alaa's admirable actions offer the audience an excellent example of how simple acts of kindness can create large ripples of change.' -- Shelf Awareness, starred review

I remember specifically searching for this book, in fact, and coming up with nothing. Pretty much, I wanted a title that could systematically tell me about all the different cat breeds out there. And while I’m sure we’ve seen such somewhat similar books in the past, there’s something so nice about this flurry of fluffy facts." ―Elizabeth Bird, School Library Journal"The Atlas of Cats is a charming hardcover volume that teaches young readers about different breeds of cats, and more - how cats jump, world-record setting cats, and fascinating true-life cat stories in fun-to-read "Meow News" sections.

Following each breed is a section called Meow News which illustrates a famous cat of that breed. Cat Tail language will let you know what your cat is telling you if its tail is in one of six positions. Each boldly-titled fact is accompanied by an illustration and synopsis. Brightly-colored illustrations fill the pages. The last two pages include celebrity cats, how to care for a cat and cat record holders. A fascinating and informative tribute to our feline friends." ―Youth Services Book Review"A cat lover's new favorite book! Young children and animal lovers will enjoy the adorable pictures, interesting facts, and humorous antics of the furry friends depicted in this informational text.

The illustrations wonderfully complement the descriptions and make this a book that children will pick up repeatedly. Younger children who are not yet able to read will enjoy the illustrations, while older elementary children will find joy in reading all about cats.” —Katie Duke, SLIS Crimson Review"Helena Haraštová and Jana Sedláčková's Atlas of Cats features appealing and fun cat drawings by Giulia Lombardo that bring to life cat stories. These explore the natural history of felines in an attractive combination that enlivens the concept of the bedtime story with a cat-centric focus. The study reveals different cat breeds that hold different temperaments and personalities, reviewing each cat's appearance, evolution over the centuries, and place in human affairs. The writing is notably evocative and lively, as in the description of the Ragdoll cat: "Despite my name, I'm a wild giant. No toy factor would produce a creature with such a silky coat and such dazzling blue eyes as mine!" Kids learning about cats will relish this fun approach." ―Donovans Literary Services "This book is so adorable! I love the attractive design and the sweet artwork. Every page is so colorful, and all the kitties are so cute! Although there is a lot of information in this book, the writing style makes it fun and interesting. Each page is broken up into smaller sections with easy-to-read paragraphs that keep your attention. There is some really good information in this book, and it is also interesting to read about the history of cats. I loved reading about the way different cat breeds were discovered or developed throughout history." ―Luminous Libro "I can not wait to get this book for our school library! Our kids will love this comic book style informative book about cats! Well done!" ―Joni H, Educator "Atlas of Cats is a fun and interesting non-fiction book for young cat lovers! The book covers many different breeds of cat and what makes them unique. There are also some fun features such as "Meow News" articles, world records and lots of funny and interesting pictures. Some of the non-fiction text features include: text boxes, diagrams, lists, legends, charts/tables, arrows, labels, bold text and headings. The fonts, pictures and random facts will definitely keep the interest of young readers. While there is a lot of text on each page and over 100 pages, I think that some children would enjoy looking at the pictures or reading this book with a friend or family member. I think this book would be best suited for children in the 8-11 range, but some younger or older kids may enjoy it as well." ―Angie k, Educator "This is an amazing book for cat lovers - I like a cat but this is for the tier of people who like a cat more than me! Tons of info for the serious enthusiast." ―Elizabeth S, Bookseller "I have always been a cat lover. I have had several cats in my life and I have loved them all so much. One of my cats was even a life saver for me. I had epilepsy and when I would have seizures my cat would run and jump on my parents and meow constantly until they came to check on me. Cat's are so amazing. They are smart, beautiful, perfect comic relief, and so sweet and sassy. If you love cats like I do then you will love this adorable book. It tells all about different kinds of cats. It does a wonderful job explaining the different cats personalities, what they look like, including different color variations, the different facial expressions and tail movements they have and the life expectancy of the cats. The illustrations are adorable and colorful. This is the perfect book for cat lovers of all ages." ―Whitney H, Reviewer"This book is absolutely adorable. Any cat lover kid will dig this up! The illustrations are adorable, the breed information is accurate along with a lot of other informative tidbits. I really enjoyed the meow news sections talking about famous cats too. I'm really excited to share this one with my kids!" ―Ipek A, Reviewer"Atlas of Cats is an excellent entertaining reference of cat breeds.

Abrams How to Be a Cat
Book Synopsis In Nikki McClure’s tender board book, a kitten practices the basics of feline behavior over the course of a day. A single word of text per spread teaches readers “how to be a cat”—how to stretch, clean, pounce, feast—while the striking paper cuts illustrate the kitten’s attempts to imitate an adult cat’s mastery of each skill. At times, the kitten triumphantly succeeds, and at other times the kitten struggles, in vignettes that range from whimsical to profound. A celebration of all things feline, How to Be a Cat also tells a universal story of mastering life skills, and of the loving relationship between parent and child. Trade ReviewBoldly rendered black-and-white images offer the perfect background for the large, pale blue font of the text. * School Library Journal *
