SYNOPSIS

A zany rhythmical text complements an entertaining selection of full-color cat photographs set against a vivid, computer-generated background, in a humorous look at the wonderful world of felines.  For children under four.

AUTHOR'S NOTES

The Big Kahuna, the world's fattest cat and one of the models in Cool Cat, made regular appearances with me at book signings.  At 40 pounds, the Big Kahuna was quite a draw and "autographed" thousands of books with his pawprint.

REVIEWS

Hot Dog and Cool Cat
Birmingham Post-Herald

"A bouncy rhyme and ridiculously silly photographs make a winning combination in two new board books, Hot Dog and Cool Cat. The author knows how to get a laugh from her young readers (and their parents). Just the rhyme can bring a smile: "Cool dog. Drool dog. Swimming in the pool dog." But it's the photographs of dogs and cats at play that will provoke howls of laughter from your little one, even as she or he commands, "Read it again!""
