The Cat in the Hat’s Learning Library series combines beloved characters, engaging rhymes, and Seussian illustrations to introduce children to non-fiction topics from the real world! Travel aboard the Kitty-Cat-Copter and learn:

•       how cats fit through small spaces
•       how they use their whiskers

What Cat is That?: All About Cats is a delightful and informative book that will help children better understand the ways in which all cats communicate and behave—whether wild, pedigreed, or random-bred domestic cats. I love the descriptive text and marvelous illustrations expressing how cats act and look when threatened, nervous, or displaying affection. For a small book it packs loads of good information. There are facts about several rare pedigreed breeds and descriptions of natural cat behavior like "bunting," tail twitching and claw extension. This book will help instill respect for all cats!
