These are just a few of my (Lily’s) favorite books.
Cat in the Hat by
Dr. Seuss is tops on my list. Guess why? Yes, you guessed it. The most
important character is a mischievous feline, with his own pets, Thing 1 and
Thing 2. He lets the kids know who is boss, too. He has cattitude! The brother
and sister have fun with his antics. The fish that warns them, well, he’s as big
a worry wart like Mom is here. No worries, the Cat in the Hat cleans up after
himself and his friends. Only thing is, he looks awfully silly in a hat, bow-tie
and gloves. Gloves? That couldbe a bit messy. I hope he takes them off when he
uses the litter-box.
Little Women by
Louisa May Alcott is another favorite. The main character, Jo March, has a cat
or two in her attic to keep her company when she writes. Her little sister,
Beth, loves kittens! Besides, Mom really likes this story and relates to Jo
wanting to be a writer.
Meow Mayhem by Lisa Lickel . . . just saying . . . the kitty on the cover is adorable and
striped like . . . ahem . . . me. And it’s a nice cozy mystery with several
cats in the mix and romance to boot.
By now you can see my theme. What are some of your favorite
books with cats in them?

Memnet says thanks. Cool collar, Lilybits. Wanna go check out the dumpsters later?
ReplyDeleteLilybits says: Thank you, Memnet. Sure, if I can sneak out of here
Deletelater, I'll go. Mom doesn't let me go anywhere without a harness and
leash.
Good question, Lilybits. Hm. Let me think...There's the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland, Snowball in Stuart Little, and of course, Garfield. But currently your my favorite cat. You're actually making me think I need a few felines of my own. Working on that!
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, the Cheshire cat! He's so good at disappearing. :)
DeleteWish I could be as sneaky as that. And thank you for the
lovely compliment. (says Lilybits)
