I Love Little Kitty
, this charming picture book shows a mischievous cat playing games of chase with a clever mouse, who seems to outwit the cat on each page.
T
he true friendship between these two cute creatures is revealed on the last pages, when Mouse pats Kitty while he drinks his milk, followed by a contented nap together. The illustrations are quite detailed, sweetly styled and capture the essence of the animals' natures.
F
or more adventures with Mouse, check out the author's previous book, called
Pip & Squeak
