Crumpton, Nick2020
Book
Highlighting the qualities of different types of cats, and answering some of the more curious questions children have about them, this title will help youngsters understand what's so unique about a cat's body and its behaviour and why they deserve to be well cared for. The book also profiles famous cats from history and popular culture, including the cat-headed Egyptian goddess Bastet and Larry, Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office, who lives and works at 10 Downing Street in London. By incorporating zoological information about the feline species with stories from history, art, religion and popular culture, 'Why Do Cats Meow?' celebrates why cats have been such dear pets to us for centuries.
