For the Love of Cats:
An A-to-Z Primer for Cat Lovers of All Ages
By Sandy Robins
Illustrations by Mark Anderson

 

Why do we love cats? They are funny, curious, independent, and beautiful. They amaze and entertain us with their acrobatic leaps and impressive hunting skills. They calm us with their loving touch and soothing purr.

 

For the Love of Cats: An A-to-Z Primer for Cat Lovers of All Ages by Sandy Robins, with illustrations by Mark Anderson, celebrates these wonderful creatures and our special relationship with them using an alphabet full of fun verses, informative text, and colorful illustrations that will captivate and educate feline fans of all ages. F is for "Finicky," but why do cats turn their noses up at food? And T is for "Tail," but did you know that all those twitches and flicks represent a special unspoken language?

 

Among the interesting facts and anecdotes included in this cat alphabet:

 

• There are an estimated 600 million cats in the world, making them the most popular pet.
• Several cat-related holidays appear on the calendar, but National Cat Week falls in November annually.
• A Cat's yawn is a form of a greeting that can mean both hello and goodbye.

 

For the Love of Cats both entertains and educates; readers are sure to learn something interesting even as they are chuckling about the realities of living with cats. The result is a creative, eye-catching tribute to our feline friends that can be enjoyed by readers of all ages.
